Plant seeds need to be scattered because if there are too many germinating plants growing in one spot then there will be over-crowding and compitition for light, oxygen, nutrients in soil and other resources. The slightly shorter plants won't receive enough light or oxygen for growth and will die because these vital resources will be blocked by the taller plants. Chances of diseases will increase that will lead to detoriation of human and plant health.

Seeds need to be dispersed to prevent the extinction of that plant's specie. They can be dispersed by wind, water or maybe explosive splitting. Some dispersing of seeds in plants are really cool, for example one plant specie disperses its seeds by puffing out its powdery seeds from the force of a raindrop falling onto it. Watch it in YouTube.com and type in "plant dispersal".

Seeds need to be scattered far from the original plant so that they don't compete with the original plant for resources, and so that if the plants in the original area die or are killed, the plants as a whole will still survive.

Plants scatter seeds as a method of dispersal. They do so, so that they can propagate their species.

So roots have room to grow and do not interfere with the growth of other plants by absorbing available nutrients and water.
