In order to optimization germination condition of broccoli, we carried out germination ratio experiment under soaking time, soaking temperature, oxygen concentration. The germination ratio results 98.5% following as soaking water having 10 ppm DO (demanded oxygen) during 4 hr at 20~30℃. The result of provide the dissolved oxygen water, when the concentration of oxygen water were 7, 12 ppm, germination ratio were observed about 76%, 92%. Also, we showed the growth rate of 2 times in 12 ppm compared with 7 ppm. Consequently, germination ratio of broccoli increased cultivation condition at soaking water having high concentration oxygen more than supply to oxygen water of high concentration.
