| Abstract | ||
| An experiment was conducted in the spring season of 2014 at two locations , first was in the fields of Agriculture collage – Tikrit university and the second was in Baigie province (Al-Maleha village) to aim study the effect of three cultivars [FAO 200 (Ronaldino) –FAO 300 (zp341)-FAO 400 (zp434)] and three types of fertilization (Nitrogenous , Organic and Nitrogenous + Organic) with three ratios moisture at harvest (32 , 28 , and 24 % ) to determined field , yield and qualitative traits with missed ratios in corn (zea mays L) by effect these cultivars and nitrogenous , organic and moisture ratios at harvest . The cultivars and levels of nitrogenous fertilization were used as main plot , while the moisture ratios at harvest were used as sub plot , there was that all the traits which studies moisture ratios factor entered before as RCBD design with two factors , while the traits which studies after entering the factor of moisture ratios were as split in factorial plot arrangement . The results referred to that the cultivar 300 was surpassed in the two locations in single plant yield (gm.plant-1) , grain yield (ton/h.) , oil percentage (%). Also the organic fertilization was surpass in the two locations in single yield plant (gm.plant-1), grain yield (ton/h.), oil yield (ton/h.). The moisture ratio (32 %) was surpassed in the two location in the grain yield (ton/h.), single plant yield (gm.plant-1), oil yield (ton/h.). The (24 %) ratio of moisture was surpassed in oil percentage (%) for the first location . | ||
