Herein we present the use of cold plasma based on corona discharge as a promising method for seed sterilization, germination enhancement, and prolonged seed longevity. We then discuss which plasma components interact on the rice seed surface, resulting in fungal inactivation and seed surface modification. The enhancement of surface wettability (apparent contact angle measurement [ACA] and water imbibition [WI]) was discussed with supporting evidence from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images. Subsequently, we presented seed germination enhancement before and during 60 day storage. In addition, the effect of plasma treatment on moisture content (% MC) of rice seed was presented
