The results of pot cultured experiment showed that seeds of maize could not come out when the soil moisture was under 45 percent of the maximum field water holding capacity if super absorbent resin was added in the soil,whereas in the control treatment with the same water content they could come out.The results proved that application of the super absorbent resin reduced the rate of maize emergence.Field trials also proved the fact.It is helpful in gathering and storing water for the super absorbent resin can avoid the water from running off.The determining of water content after raining showed the effect more clearly.
