What are these white things on this cycad? Are they some kind of bugs, or are they seeds?

That picture is of a cycad plant and it has a minor infestation of scale.

Provide good drainage for the plant so it doesn't sit in water. .The pot should have drainage holes
Scale can be controlled with soap and water but it takes diligence and repeated applications so you can catch the juveniles after they hatch. See here for more details
