| Field experiments were conducted at the Research Station College of Agriculture, University of Basra at Garmat Ali district. The experiments were carried out during the winter season 2012-2013 in clay loam soil. The purpose of the research is to study the effect of water magnetization and the quality of irrigation water in soil penetration resistance during the plant growth stages (the beginning of the forest and the beginning of flowering and after harvesting) for barley crop (Hordium vulgare L.) . The magnetization of irrigation water treatments Included, non-magnetized water (M0) and water magnetized (M1). The irrigation water quality treatment included five types of water namely, tap water (TW) , River water (RW) , wastewater (WW) ,treated sewage water passed through sandy filter (WWT) and mixed water (MW) ( 50% RW + 50% WWT ).The experiments were conducted using factorial experiments according to randomized complete block design (RCBD) . The irrigation water was added on the basis of the shortfall in the level of water of the evaporation basin installed in the field. The amount of water added was 100% of the amount vaporized water plus 20% as leaching requirements. The results showed that: The magnetized water reduced the soil penetra-tion resistance compared with non-magnetized water. The effect of the water quality treatment on the soil penetration resistance taken the following order RW >MW >WWT >WW >TW. The soil penetration resistance increased with the growth season progress and with depth . | ||
