Storage of seeds really determines the storability and quality of seeds, because Long-term storage, the seeds will deterioration. Deterioration of seed quality (deterioration) is inevitable but can be slowed by good and proper storage. To maintain seed quality, proper storage methods need to be carried out. The deterioration of the seeds can be improved by seed PEG immersion and hydration-dehydration. The objective of this research is to obtain an appropriate invigoration method to improve physiological seed quality Method: In this research, we used factorial two factors, we examine the effects of PEG immersion and hydration-dehydration treatment on three rice varieties; Batang Piaman, PB42, and IPB3S. Results: The results showed that PEG immersion and hydration-dehydration of three cultivars interacted with the index value. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that the invigoration method significantly improves the viability and vigor of Batang Piaman from 50% to 70% and 46.67% to 70% (PEG immersion), respectively.
