Study on wind velocity and air temperature flowing through the bottom with sieve (wire net work) and the set of riddles with varying hole sizes in no.1,2,3 which have rate of air flow 5.08, 1.54, 0.42 and 0.34 m/s,respectively. The result indicated that the sweetcorn 17-18 percentage of seed moisture content could be decreased to moisture content to 7-8 percent in 4-6 hours, but not significant in seed germination also seed moisture content and deterioration of 10 deg. celsius. plastic containers storage period about 16 months. By the way, 9-10 months storage period under ambient temperature was found to be significant between the germination percentage and the electrical conductivity of seed exudate.
