An experiment was conducted in a greenhouse growing tomato plant in sand nutrient culture with variable ratios of Ca:Mg and potassium in the nutrient solution. The aim was to evaluate productivity parameters and marketable fruit production. The experiment consisted of four Ca:Mg ratios (4:6, 5:5, 7.5:2.5, and 10:0.5 mM/L-1), along with three K concentrations 0.5, 3, and 4.5 mM/L-1 in the nutrient solution. There were 12 treatment each has three replicates. In spite of the increase in weight and volume of fruits with increasing Ca:Mg ratios and potassium concentrations, the increase in fruit number on the plant with increasing Ca:Mg ratio to (5:5) and 6 mM K has the main effect on plant productivity and marketable fruits. In this treatment plants produced 49 fruit/plant resulted from 5 fruit punches. Most of the physiological disorder symptoms spread on fruits was blotchy shoulders, which was associated directly with low potassium concentration in the growth medium, which negatively influenced the marketable fruit production.

This study aim at investigating the tolerance of two tomato rootstock (Sprit and ES- 30502) widely speared in Syria and used for crafting some tomato hybrids grown in green houses for different salinity levels (0- 25- 50- 75- 100- 150 mM NaCl). Th e results show that the germination of rootstock Sprit seeds was not influenced by high salinity 150 mM despite a delay of 1-2 days compared with the control. A reduction of 15% was observed in the rootstock ES-30502 at 100 and 150 mM NaCl salinity levels, in addition to slower percentage rate of germination. In contrast, the effect of salinity on the development of the radical and rootlet was more pronounced in Sprit compared to ES- 30502. Salinity decreased the growth of both shoots and roots, and also decreased nutrient acquisition in both rootstocks, but to a lesser degree in ES-30502. The uptake of K was not greatly affected and concentrations in shoot remained normal. The concentrations of Ca and Mg were also not affected by salinity. The most pronounced effect of salinity was on nitrogen effect (NO3) which was reduced greatly in both rootstocks. This was accompanied by accumulation of free NO3 ions in the shoot tissue (58 and 45 % of total N uptake at salinity level of 150 mM). It is most likely that toxicity of Na and Cl ions, and consequent osmotic changes in cell tissue led to slower nitrate reductase activity (NRA) and accumulation of NO3.
The experiment was carried out during2013-2014 Miaar Shaker village (Tartous) to determine the best method of irrigation on growth and productivity of Tomato plant in plastic green-house. Three method of irrigation were used in the experiment :(furro w surface , surface drip and subsurface drip irrigation). Growth of plants, productivity and fruit quality were studies. The results showed that surface and subsurface drip irrigation give more plant growth (leaves number and leaves area) more flowering and fruit production as compared with furrow irrigation method .The leaves number and leaves area in plant with surface drip irrigation was 31.49 leaves and 17078/plant while these number reached only to 22.91 leaves and 7057.86/plant in the furrow irrigation with significant difference . The productivity of plants was also higher in surface drip irrigation method(4.75 kg/ plant) without significant difference as compared with subsurface irrigation method and with significant difference as compared with furrow irrigation method (3.95 kg/ plant). The quality of fruits was better in surface drip irrigation (8.28% dry material ,5.02% TSS and 28.23mg vitamin c /100g) in fresh matter while these number were 7.18%, 4.98% and 20.96 mg/100g in furrow . The irrigation method haven't affect in the: plant length ,and acidity percentage.
This search was carried out in Abi Garash farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Damascus University to study the efficiency of using “Agerton” as a fertiliser; either by irrigation or a foliar spry on tomato seedling. Four varieties were used (Astona, Tyr ad, E26 and Local). Results showed that the treatment by the fertilizer resulted in an increase in growth thorough the plant length increasing. This increase was about 1.1 and 1.2 folds for all varieties and types of treatment (irrigation and foliar spry), as compared to the control. Moreover, the using of fertilizer led to a significant increase in the yield of plant, which increased by 1.2 and 1.5 in Astona; 1.2 and 1.4 in E26, 2.2 and 2.3 in Local and 1.5 and 2 in Tyrade, for the treatment of irrigation and foliar spry, respectively.
This investigation was carried out on fifteen years old Sorani and Kaissy olive cultivars (Oleaeuropaea L.) trees grown in Basaltic soil that was poor in organic matter and potassium. The aim of the present investigation is to study the effect of different amount of organic and potassium fertilization on yield, fruit weight, oil percentage, and oil acidity. Results obtained showed that the highest value of fruit weight, yield, and oil precentage exhibited statistically the highest values by trees fertilized with the treatments (Organic + Potassium). Acidity increased in (Organic + Potassium) treatments but it was less than 2% oleic acid , while it was less than 1% oleic acid in Potassium treatments and in Organic treatments (Extra vergin oil).
A pot experiment was conducted in a green house at Tishreen University in which bread wheat (cv. Sham 6) was grown at different levels of potassium nutrition (K0=0, K1=25, K2=50, K3=75, K4=100, K5=150) mg k/kg soil. The increase in potassium fertil ization rates led to a significant increase in the number of total tillers and fertile tillers on the expense of non-fertile tillers. This was accompanied with no significant increase in number of main stems spikes grains, while the tillers spikes of the first level of potassium application (K1) was higher significantly compared to control treatment (K0). The same treatment (K1) gave the best weight of grain on the main stems spikes and tillers. The productivity of grain yield increased (but non-significantly) with increasing the level of potassium fertilization. The highest yield value was obtained in K5 treatment which was 13933 kg /ha. This productivity constitutes a rate of increase 18% compared to the control treatment (K0). The calculation of Agronomic Efficiency (AE) showed a high value of (about 13 kg seeds/kg of K fertilizer added) in the K1 treatment, and thereafter, AE gradually decreased with potassium fertilization to reach about 6 kg grain/kg K fertilizer for K4 and K5 treatments (100 and 150 mg K/kg).
