Abstract

This study aims to explore the germination and growth patterns of mung bean seeds (Vigna radiata) through a polynomial interpolation fitting approach in a controlled environment. Mung beans are also popular in Asian diets, are used in many dishes, and have lots of nutritional value. The study is meant to describe the germination and growth pattern of mung beans over six successive days, performing height measurements and polynomial regression analysis for growth model development. Polynomial interpolation involves investing mung bean seeds in water and then measuring the average height of the beans each day. The data were analyzed using Newton’s divided difference polynomial interpolation. The findings revealed an initial phase of steep growth, followed by a steadier increase, signifying the plant’s maturity. The study has given a useful insight into various aspects of the growth dynamics of mung bean and has made a set of suggestions for the improvement of growth conditions concerning the crop and a research direction that can be followed in the future to further improve the yield of the crop.
