This is to minimize crowding and competition between each plant when they grow. If they were sown too close together, competition between each plant would decrease the value of the crop and reduce the amount of seed that can be sold for cash. However, some crops like wheat, barley and rice, can be planted very close together and this doesn't affect their vigour or ability to produce a bumper crop of grain.

Why do seeds grow quickly after being frozen?

Not all seeds do, but many seeds from regions with cold winters require freezing in order to break their dormancy. This helps the seeds to germinate at the appropriate time. If seeds that fell in fall germinated immediately, they would face freezing winter temperatures which could damage or kill them. Seeds that germinate after freezing are more likely to grow in spring with lots of warm weather ahead of them.
