Abstract

Corn (Zea mays L.) is an important food crop whose successful cultivation largely depends on seed germination. Water plays a crucial role in germination by activating seed metabolism through the imbibition process. This study aimed to examine the effect of soaking duration on the speed and quality of corn seed germination. The research employed a completely randomized design with four soaking durations (0, 6, 12, and 24 hours), each replicated three times. Corn seeds were soaked according to the treatment times, then germinated on wet cotton media and observed for seven days. Parameters measured included germination percentage, radicle emergence time, and seedling length. Results showed that soaking duration significantly influenced all observed parameters. Soaking for 12 hours produced the best results with the highest germination percentage, faster radicle emergence, and optimal seedling length compared to other treatments. Short soaking times were insufficient to stimulate imbibition, while excessively long soaking reduced germination percentage due to oxygen deficiency and risk of seed decay. In conclusion, soaking corn seeds for 12 hours is recommended as the optimal duration to improve germination success. These findings can serve as a guideline for farmers to enhance seedling techniques for corn.

Abstract

The soil’s ability to store water is one of the key factors determining agricultural productivity, particularly in lowland areas that frequently experience water saturation. This study aimed to examine the effects of soil texture and structure on the soil’s water-holding capacity. Soil samples were collected from several points in lowland areas and subsequently analyzed in the laboratory using the pipette method to determine soil texture, morphological observations to assess soil structure, and the gravimetric method to measure water-holding capacity. The results showed that fine-textured soils, such as clay, have a higher water-holding capacity compared to coarse-textured soils, such as sand. Soil structures that are granular and stable enhance soil porosity and enable water to be retained for a longer period. The combination of clay texture and granular structure resulted in the most optimal soil water-holding capacity. Therefore, soil physical conditions, particularly texture and structure, play a crucial role in maintaining soil water balance. Soil management practices involving the addition of organic matter and appropriate tillage are essential measures to improve soil water-holding capacity and support sustainable agriculture in lowland areas.
