Abstract: RAMIREZ, CRISHA MAE P. Effects of Pre-Sowing Treatments on the Viability of Robusta (Coffeea robusta 1.) Coffee Seeds. Research Study. Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2015. Adviser: Dr. Ruel M. Mojica. This study, conducted at the National Coffee Research Development and Extension Center Coffee Nursery of the Cavite State University, aimed to determine the early growth parameters such as: leaf area index, plant dry weight and number of roots, the percentage germination, the average number of days from sowing to germination, and the pre-sowing treatment that facilitates best growth results. Treatments were: Treatment 1 (T;) - Seed sowing after harvest, Treatment 2 (T2) - 24 hours seeds soaking in tap water, Treatment 3 (T3) - 24 hours seeds soaking in lukewarm water, Treatment 4 (T4) - 5 second seeds blanching in boiling water, Treatment 5 (Ts) - Sulfuric Acid Solution and Treatment 6 (T¢) — Scarification. Based on the result of this study, the viability of robusta coffee seeds in terms of percentage germination 30 days after sowing is 0, 45 days after sowing is 6.50 and 60 days after sowing is 31. The average number of days from sowing to germination is 37 days. The most significant early growth parameter is the plant dry weight and the best pre-sowing treatments that produce the best results are Treatment 5 which is the Sulfuric acid solution and Treatment 3 which is 24 hours seeds soaking in lukewarm water.
