| Abstract | ||
| Two fields experiments were carried out at El-Serw Agricultural Research Station, Damietta Governorate (31° 14' 37.3" N, 31° 47' 57.1" E), Egypt during two successive winter growing seasons of 2018/ 2019 and 2019/2020 to study the effect of mole drains (with 2 and 4 m distance and 30 and 40 cm depth) and two planting methods (basins and furrows) on saline soil chemical properties, fertilely and productivity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L., vc Sakha 93) productivity. The obtained data showed that, increasing in mole depth and decrease the distance between the moles reduced sail pH, EC, ESP and the content of OM and available N, P and K. These decreases with furrows planting method were higher than those found with basins planting method. In addition, the high straw and grains yields (kgfed-1) of wheat plants as well as its content and uptake of N, P, K and protein were found with 2 m distance and 40 cm depth of mole drains in furrow planting methods. These results concluded that, under saline sail conditions, furrows planting method performed than basins one with applying mole drains as well as application of both organic and mineral fertilizer in suitable amounts and forms. | ||
