Abstract | ||||
Many of soil amendments can be used to reduce the effect of saline-sodic soils on crop production. Accordingly, the main goal of the present study is to evaluate the salt tolerance, growth and yield performance of three wheat cultivars (Shandaweel 1, Sids 1 and Sids 14) to salt stress in Egypt. This research was carried out in a field experiment at the Shandaweel Agricultural Research Station during the two successive growing seasons 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 using Randomized complete block design using strip blot arrangement with three replications where, two irrigation levels (I1: 100% and I2:120% of field capacity) were allocated in split blocks, four compost and gypsum treatments; control: without application, compost (4 ton/feddan), gypsum(8 ton/feddan) and compost + gypsum) were assigned to the sub plots and three wheat cultivars were allocated in the sub sub plots. | ||||
