| Abstract | ||||
| Water magnetization is one of many techniques used to improve properties of irrigation water and therefore, soil fertility and plant growth, are enhanced. A field experiment was carried out during two successive winter seasons of (2019/20- 2020/21) on newly reclaimed sandy soil at Assiut Valley desert, Assiut governorate, Egypt. The study aims to explore the effects of magnetized saline irrigation water and some sources of fertilizers type on growth and yield of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.; Gemiza-11variety) and soil properties. The experiment was laid out in a Randomly Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates. The study included four treatments, TW= control treatment (without fertilization), TB= Bio-fertilizer (SGM), TC= Chemical fertilizer and TO= Organic manure (FYM), with using magnetized and un-magnetized saline irrigation water which applied by drip irrigation system. The results showed a decrease in water salinity values from 4.22 to 3.15 dSm-1 at soil treated by TO treatment with un-magnetized water (UN-MWT). While, using treated magnetized water (MWT) decreased from 4.06 to 2.82. Also, pH values decreased from 8.14 to 8.04 with un-magnetic water but using treated magnetic water decreased from 8.11 to 8.02. In addition to increase grain, straw yields and weight of 1000-grains values to 2.665, 3.744-ton feddan-1 (feddan = 4200 m² = 0.420 hectares = 1.037 acres) and 58.67 g, under MWT compared to 2.316, 2.699-ton feddan-1 and 53.67 g, respectively under N-MWT. Furthermore, as a result, it’s recommended to use magnetic technology with chemical fertilizer has a positive impact on properties of sandy soils and has a good effect in wheat crop productivity and quality. | ||||
