Abstract:Combined effects of plasma seed treatment and plasma activated waters (PAW) application on paddy was explored. Low pressure (100 torr) glow oxygen discharge (LPGOD) plasma was used for seed treatment and germination test revealed that 90s seed treatment duration produced highest seed germination of ~96% which is the highest paddy seed germination rate obtained through plasma technology. Plasma activated water (PAW) was prepared with submerged atmospheric pressure air discharge plasma jet. PAW was sprayed 1-5 t… Show more
