This research was carried out through the 201-2011 and 201-/2012 seasons
on 26-year-old trees of AL– Ashouri Pistachio cultivar grown in clay soil, in a
private orchard in Souran region (Hama province). Four types of organic green
fertilizers (Len
tils, Vetch, equal mixture from Lentils and Vetch and mix of
these legumes with barley), in addition to the control, to study their effects on
some quantitative and qualitative characteristics of pistachio nut. Results
showed that the use of green fertilizers caused significant increase in studied
indicators and the best treatment was mix of legumes with barley (45% Lentils,
45% vetch, 10% Barley), which achieved the highest significant values، where
average of weight of the 100 nuts was 107.45 g during the two seasons, the
average of weight of the 100 kernel was 67.08 g, average of length of shell was
20.85mm and an annual yield was 32 kg/ tree, compared with control, which
achieved 87.50g, 40.25g, 18.08 mm and 16.75 kg, respectively.
The effect of green manure and biofertilizer by using (Lupinus albus and
Lupinus albu s + Rhizobium) on some soil properties and potato growth and
production during two successive seasons of 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 was
studied. The results showed
that green manure provided the soil with 3.75
kg/m2 green organic matter including (398 g dry matter and 14 g nitrogen),
while lupinus albus + Rhizobium provided the soil with 4.55 kg/m2 green
organic matter including (581 g dry matter and 22.3 g nitrogen) and improved
soil chemical properties. The results showed as well that biofertilizer significant
improved potato growth parameters: plant and tuber dry matter, foliage
surface, foliage index, plant length, plant elements content (N,P,K,Ca and Mg),
tuber number and their content of nitrate and protein .The results showed as
well that biofertilizer significant improved marketing potato yield.
Cotton is considered as one of the most important crops grown in AL-Ghab plain and which distinguish by excessive requirements from mineral elements.The importance of this study comes in trying to increase the economic proceeds of cotton crop by guidance of using of fertilizers and keeping soil fertility
