Abstract

This research was conducted at the screen house of the Banten Agricultural Research and Technology Center (BPTP) and the Agroclimatology Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa from November 2020 to March 2021. This study used a factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD). The first factor is several varieties with 3 levels, namely NASA 29, Lamuru, and Bisi 2. The second factor is soil water availability with 4 levels, namely 100% Field Capacity (FC), 80% FC, 60% FC, and 40% FC. The use of different corn varieties showed differences in the parameters of dry grain weight and weight of 100 grains. Soil water availability affected the length of the cobs, the dry weight of the cobs without husks, and the weight of dry seeds. There is an interaction between varieties and soil water availability for the parameters of leaf area, plant dry weight, and corncob diameter.
