Abstract

Seedlings are a challenge for True Shallot Seeds (TSS). Prior to sowing, farmers frequently apply water, warm water, pesticides, or growth regulators. Previcur-N is a fungicide used by farmers. The purpose of this study was to see the effect of Previcur-N on True Shallot Seed (TSS) in the lab. With two factors and four replications, the experiment was conducted using a randomized block design. The first factor is soaking period (1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, and 4 hours), and the second factor is Previcur-N doze (0 ml/L, 0.5 ml/L, 1 ml/ L, 1.5 ml/L) with control (non-soaking treatment). Hypocotyl length, germination speed, seedling growth rate, germination percentage, abnormal seedling percentage, and dead seed percentage were all observed. The results indicate that, most Previcur-N treatments lowered hypocotyl length, germination speed, and germination percentage, exceptionally the 1 ml/L for 1 hour treatment. Nevertheless, the Soaking water treatment for 2 hours can increase the germination of TSS seeds
