Abstract

Functional food corn has the potential to be developed because it has complete nutritional content. However, the nutritional value needs to be increased. One of the nutrients that needs to be improved because it is needed for plant growth and human nutritional needs is zinc. Agronomic biofortification techniques using priming and spraying leaves are believed can increase growth, production, seed quality and nutritional content in corn seeds. The aim of this research was to determine the effect of Zinc application on growth, production, seed quality and Zinc concentration levels in corn seeds. The research was arranged in a Randomized Block Design and was repeated three times and there were five treatments in this study, namely (1) control; (2) Zinc priming 0.5%; (3) Zinc priming 0.5% + spraying 0.5% Zinc 30 Days After Planting (DAP); (4) Zinc priming 0.5% + spraying 0.5% Zinc 45 DAP; (5) Zinc priming 0.5% + spraying 0.5% Zinc 50 DAP. The research results showed that the combination of seed priming and Zinc spraying had a significant effect on the variables of chlorophyll content, chlorophyll index, plant dry weight, and the number of seeds per cob of Srikandi Ungu corn variety. Zinc biofortification treatment through Zinc priming 0.5% + 0.5% Zinc spraying 50 DAP is the best treatment in increasing growth, production, seed quality and zinc content in Srikandi Ungu cord seeds compared to other treatments. Jagung pangan fungsional berpotensi untuk dikembangkan karena memiliki kandungan nutrisi yang lengkap. Namun nilai kandungan nutrisinya perlu ditingkatkan. Salah satu nutrisi yang perlu ditingkatkan kandungannya karena sangat dibutuhkan bagi pertumbuhan tanaman maupun kebutuhan nutrisi manusia adalah Zinc . Teknik biofortifikasi agronomi dengan priming dan penyemprotan daun diyakini dapat meningkatkan pertumbuhan, produksi, hingga mutu benih dan kandungan nutrisi pada benih jagung. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengaruh aplikasi Zinc terhadap pertumbuhan, produksi, mutu benih, dan kadar konsentrasi Zinc dalam benih jagung. Penelitian disusun dalam Rancangan Acak Kelompok dan diulang sebanyak tiga kali. Terdapat lima perlakuan pada penelitian ini, yaitu (1) kontrol; (2) priming Zinc 0,5%; (3) priming Zinc 0,5% + penyemprotan 0,5% Zinc 30 Hari Setelah Tanam (HST); (4) priming Zinc 0,5% + penyemprotan 0,5% Zinc 45 HST; (5) priming Zinc 0,5% + penyemprotan 0,5% Zinc 50 HST. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kombinasi priming benih serta penyemprotan Zinc berpengaruh nyata terhadap variabel kandungan klorofil, indeks klorofil, bobot kering tanaman, dan jumlah biji per tongkol jagung varietas Srikandi Ungu. Perlakuan biofortifikasi Zinc melalui priming Zinc 0,5% + penyemprotan 0.5% Zinc pada 50 HST merupakan perlakuan terbaik dalam meningkatkan pertumbuhan, produksi, mutu benih, dan kadar zinc pada benih jagung varietas Srikandi Ungu dibandingkan dengan perlakuan lainnya.
