EFFECT OF FOLIAR NUTRITION WITH MICROELEMENTS ON YIELD AND ITS COMPONENTS FOR SEVERAL VARIETIES OF BREAD WHEAT (Triticum aestivum L.)
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research was carried out during the winter agricultural season 2022-2021 in the fields of a farmer in the Hawi Yarmaja area located (15 km) East of Mosul. The aim was to find out the effect of foliar feeding using microelements sprayed on the leaves to determine the best concentration of microelements that leads to increase the yield and its components and choose the best varieties in terms of yield, The research included (16) factorial treatments that represented the compatibility among four concentrations of micro-nutrient fertilizers (Fe, Cu, B, Mn, Zn) at concentrations (0, 200, 300, 400 g. donum-1) during two stages of growth (elongation and lining) with four varieties of bread wheat (Arabia, Talafar, Bora and Besanzo). The experiment was applied using the randomized complete block design (R.C.B.D) according to the split plot system, the results showed that the concentration 400 and Talafar and Bora varieties were significantly superior in most of the yield traits and components, while the control treatment gave the lowest average for the yield traits and components, and the overlap between concentration (400 g. donum-1) with the two cultivars Bora and Tal Afar occurred, and they obtained the highest rate for most of the studied traits.
