摘要:Productivity of Pepper Seeds Which are Treated Dry Heat Treatment and StoragePepper plants (Capsicum frutescens L.) is one type of horticultural crops which is very high usagelevels therefor, it is necessary to increase productivity dramatically. One effort to fulfil the need ispreparing healthy seed with long shelf life . This study aims to determine the growth and yield of pepperplants whose seed was treated with dry heat treatment and storage. The experiment was conducted inBr . Marga Tengah, Kerta Village, Payangan District, Gianyar Regency, since May to October 2013.This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with two factors and four replications. The firstfactor is treated seeds by dry heat treatment at two levels i.e. given dry heat treatment at 70OC for 72hours (D1) and without dry heat treatment (D0). The second factor is the storage of seeds with threelevels, namely: non-stored seeds (T0), seed stored 2 months (T2) and the seeds stored for 4 months(T4). The results showed that there was no interaction between treatment with dry heat treatment andseed storage treatment of all variables of growth and yield of pepper plants. Dry heat treatment resultedthe better growth and yield compared to non dry heat treatment. An increase in the number of fruitharvest as much as 33,43% and increased the weight of the fruit harvest per hectare as much as33,79% on dry heat treatment compared with no dry heat treatment. Treatment of seed storage untilthe shelf life of 4 months did not affect the growth and yield of pepper plants.
