Abstract | ||||
Two field experiments were carried out at the experimental farm of the Horticulture. Research station, south EI- Tahrir, Menufyia. Governorate, Egypt in 200012001 and 200112002 growing seasons to study the effect of zinc application at different rates, sources and methods on yield components and some chemical properties of wheat (variety Giza 163). The results coutd be summarized as follow: ,. AU yielrl and yield components, characters were significantly increased by different zinc application treatments compared with control. The promising treatment was applying 0.12% zinc chelate as foliar spray. 2· Nitrogen, phosphorus, Potassium, and Zinc content of grain were increased with applying Zinc compared with control. The highest values were recorded by 0.12% Zinc chelate spraying. In this investigation, the best treatment was 0.12% Zinc chelate as (oliar spray. Compared with other treatments. | ||||
