This chapter uses the physical technology of high-tension static electricity to handle the cucumber seeds having made a breakthrough toward the general seed handling methods frequently used in the past 20 years. Through the comparative test between experimental and comparable groups, the chapter explains the optimized breeding scheme and its internal mechanism by way of high-tension static electricity. In general, the yield of majority crops can be increased through electromagnetic technology, but mostly due to the lack of enough electromagnetic strength, genetic mutation of crops can hardly be attained. The reason lies in that the electromagnetic intensity of alternating-direct current and narrow-pulse high-voltage corona is limited by the critical breakdown force and the criticality value is E<10KV/cm k. This still falls far short of the powerful ionization discharge energy of the electrical field to produce seed mutation, but outer space breeding can achieve mutagen effect. According to the fact that the production will be increased by about 30 percent to 40 percent when “satellite seed” is radiated by the high-pressure energetic cosmic rays (109-106ev in general), the electric intensity can be increased by 10 times, that is E 100kv/cm.
