Abstract | ||
A field study was carried out on private palm orchards located in Anbar province - Fallujah District, Al-Hassy region during season 2021 on date palm trees "Zahdi". Cultivar trees were with age 30 years growing in clay soil to investigate effect of organic manure (cow manure) at levels 0, 10, and 20 kg palm-1, injecting nutrient solution under the trade name" Nutreeno" into the trunk at 0 and 50 ml Palm-1 and foliar application with Zn at 0, 500, and 1000 mg l-1. The experiment was carried out factorial according to the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three factors and three replications, with one tree for each treatment, and the number of trees included in the study was 54. results showed the moral superiority of the study factors, whether individually or overlapping with each other, as all the studied traits recorded their superiority when adding 20 kg Tree-1 of organic manure. Whereas, injecting the nutrient solution with a concentration of 50 ml Tree-1 gave the best results in the content of nutrients in the leaves and fruits, and spraying with zinc at a concentration of 100 mg l-1 gave the best results in all the studied traits. | ||
