Abstract | ||||
A field trial was carried out on an alluvial soil at Shandaweel, Upper Egypt to evaluate the contribution of bulk density, total porosity, field capacity, OM and available-P in predicting chick-pea. yield, which received P-fertilizer, OM and gypsum. The results obtained revealed that all soil properties under study were affected positively by the added materials. Field capacity is the direct variable to straw yield, while for seed yield bulk density and field capacity are responsible. Available-P and total porosity are the accepted direct variables for content of protein in seeds. | ||||
