| Abstract | ||
| Two field experiments were conducted at the Rosetta region, El_Behira Governorate, Egypt, during 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 growing seasons to study the effect of water quality, fulvic acid and seaweed extracts on the yield, its components and quality characters of wheat plant (Giza 168), in split-split plot design with three replications. The main plots included irrigation water quality (Nile water and Agricultural drainage water), while seaweed extracts (control, 50 and 100 g SW/fed) was arranged in the subplot. While fulvic acid application (control, 1, 2 kg FA/fed) occupied the sub-subplot. The results concluded that application of water quality, seaweed extracts and their interaction affected significantly wheat yield and its components, where yield and its components of wheat crop increased with using Nile water (high quality water), or drainage water with foliar application of seaweed extracts (SWE) at the rate of 100 g/fed and soil application of fulvic acid at the rate of 2 kg/fed | ||
