IMPACT OF SPRINKLER IRRIGATION METHOD AND MINERAL FERTILIZER ON WHEAT PLANT

Résumé

Aim of the research was to know effect of the appropriate irrigation method and amount of fertilizer specified for urea fertilizer that achieves the best growth for the plant and increase its productivity while avoiding the bad impact on soil properties. The farmer believes that adding chemical fertilizers and amounts of irrigation water to field will increase production, so this is wasted and irrigation water is increased until this leads to it being one of the causes of soil salinization, which has become the most important problem. The Sprinkler irrigation showed significant differences compared to surface irrigation. The length of the spike , number of grain per spike ,1000 grains weight Number of spikes per square meter, grains weight per square meter and the harvest index, while the plant height was not significant only the study also showed that the correlation coefficient between the apparent characteristics of plants was stronger in the case of using sprinkler irrigation compared to the surface irrigation. Therefore, farmers must avoid surface irrigation because it harms the soil and increases its salinity.
