“…We determined viability using the TZ assay test as it is the quickest test for evaluating seed viability. Embryo dormancy in seeds of Mombasa and Tanzania guinea grasses was overcome within 6 months in cool-room storage (Hare et al 2014). On the other hand, acid scarification at the beginning of seed storage in 2011 was required to quickly overcome embryo dormancy of Mulato II seeds, but with time in cool-room storage, dormancy persisted and acid-scarified seeds had to be retreated with acid each year at the time of testing to get good germination.…”

“…The 3 kg bags of seeds consisting of one lot per bag were placed in 2 storage rooms, i.e. ambient conditions and a cool-room (Hare et al 2014). The ambient seed room was a storage shed at Ubon Ratchathani, Northeast Thailand (15º N, 104º E), where mean monthly temperatures were minimum 23 ºC, maximum 34 ºC and mean monthly RH was minimum 40%, maximum 92%.…”

“…We also found that apparent embryo dormancy and also physical dormancy in Mulato II and hardseededness in Ubon stylo persisted under storage. However, embryo dormancy in Mombasa and Tanzania guinea grasses was overcome within 6 months in cool-room storage (Hare et al 2014).…”

“…Dormansi benih Brachiaria hybrid cv Mulato II secara cepat terpatahkan bila benih disimpan pada temperatur kamar dan dormansi akan bertahan setelah tiga tahun disimpan dalam pendingin (Hare et al 2008). Dormansi rumput Mulato II dan leguminosa Ubon stylo tidak dapat dipatahkan dan bertahan sampai dua tahun bila disimpan dalam ruang pendingin sedangkan dormansi rumput Mombasa dan rumput Tanzania guinea akan patah oleh penyimpanan dalam ruang pendingin (Hare et al 2014). Pemecahan dormansi pada rumput tahunan Elymus sibiricus (rumput temperate) dilakukan antara lain dengan perlakuan KNO3, cytokinin maupun asam gibrelin (Zhang & Wang 2015).…”

“…Namun, bila disimpan dalam ruang pendingin daya hidup benih dapat bertahan sampai dua tahun untuk Mulato II. Sedangkan Ubon paspalum dan Ubon stylo dapat bertahan hidup sampai 20 bulan setelah itu daya kecambah akan menurun (Hare et al 2014). …”

Forage plant has multipurposes as feed, cover crop, erosion control, remediation on heavy metal contaminated soil, medicine, as well as textile and food coloring. Seed is a part of plant used for plant multiplication. National seed system covers germplasm management, breeding, seed production and its distribution. Therefore, forage seed production is an important aspect to be concerned. Forage seed production system has to produce high quality seed with optimum yield. There has not been any forage seed producer which ensures the quality of seed produced in accordance to seed certification requirement as those in food crop, horticulture or estate crop. Seed quality aspect covers genetic, physiology and physical quality. Seed stock certification is to guarantee that the distributed seeds have genetic identity, pure and high quality.Key words: Forage, seed, production, certification ABSTRAKTanaman pakan ternak (TPT) mempunyai multifungsi sebagai sumber hijauan pakan ternak, tanaman penutup tanah, pupuk hijauan, pengontrol erosi, remediasi lahan tercemar logam berat, tanaman obat, pewarna kain dan kue. Benih adalah bagian tanaman yang digunakan untuk memperbanyak atau mengembangbiakkan tanaman. Sistem perbenihan nasional mencakup pengelolaan plasma nutfah, kegiatan pemuliaan, produksi benih dan distribusinya sehingga perbenihan TPT merupakan hal penting untuk diperhatikan. Sistem perbenihan TPT harus menghasilkan benih yang berkualitas tinggi dan berproduksi optimal. Penangkaran benih TPT yang telah dilakukan belum sebaik pada tanaman pangan, hortikultura, maupun perkebunan. Mutu benih mencakup kualitas genetik, fisiologi dan fisik. Sertifikasi benih bertujuan menjamin agar benih yang didistribusikan memiliki identitas genetik, murni dan berkualitas tinggi.Kata kunci: Tanaman pakan ternak, benih, produksi, sertifikasi PENDAHULUANKetahanan pangan merupakan program nasional, maka penggunaan benih varietas unggul bersertifikat pada tanaman pangan, dapat berkontribusi secara signifikan dalam peningkatan produktivitas. Oleh karena itu, dalam rangka peningkatan penggunaan benih varietas unggul bersertifikat diperlukan sistem pengelolaan produksi benih yang baik, yaitu mampu menyediakan benih sesuai dengan kebutuhan petani dan pengguna lain (Ditjen Tanaman Pangan 2015).Peternakan merupakan salah satu subsektor yang mendukung ketahanan pangan melalui ketersediaan protein hewani. Dalam usaha peternakan, tanaman pakan ternak (TPT) sebagai sumber hijauan pakan ternak merupakan salah satu komponen yang menentukan keberhasilan subsektor peternakan di Indonesia, namun peranannya belum optimal.Petani menghadapi beberapa masalah antara lain kekeringan, banjir, gulma, hama, penyakit dan kondisi tanah yang buruk dalam budidaya tanaman pertanian. Khusus untuk TPT, selain faktor-faktor tersebut, komoditas ini dianggap belum mempunyai nilai ekonomi. Tingkat keberhasilan produksi tanaman maupun ternak tergantung seberapa efektif faktorfaktor tersebut dapat dikontrol atau direkayasa.Salah satu faktor untuk keberhasilan produksi ta...
