Abstract

Two field experiments were carried out in newly reclaimed land at El— Nobaria, Northern Egypt during the two successive seasons of 20042 05 and 2005/2006 to study the response of artichoke plants (cv. Herious) lo 3 application rates of both agriculture sulphur (O, 150 and 300 kg/feddan [4200 m2]) and nitrogen (80, 100 and 120 kg/feddan). Whereas, as chicken manure contains 3.4% N was used as nitrogen sourse Vegetative growth characters, head yield and its quality as well as plant chemical composition were recorded The important obtained results were as fCllO'.‘.'S' oAddition of agriculture sulphur p to 302 kgi't'ed. resulted in the best growth characters (plant height, leaves number/plant, leaf area, fresh and dry weight), tote! chlorophyll content as well as head yield and its quality. But, the increase of nutritional elements (N, P, K. Ca, and Fe) in leaves and edible part (receptacle) of artichoke plants was not great enough to be significant, With increasing the application rate of chicken manure within the range of 80 up to 120 kg N/fed,, all studied plant growth characters (plant height, leaves number/plant, leaf area, leaf fresh and dry weight). total chlorophyll content and head yield and its quality gradually and constant increased. While, no significant variaton in nutritional elements (N, P, K, Ca, and Fe) values in leaves and edible part (receptacle) was recorded. There is no great effect of the interaction treatments between both sulphur and chicken manure rates on plant growth, productiVity and head quality of artichoke plants. but generally the highest values of most measurements were associated with addition of the highest rate of both agriculture sulphur (300 kg/fed.) and chicken manure (120 kg N/fed,). It could be concluded that, from the economical view, the addition of both 150 kg/fed. of agriculture sulphur and 100 kg N/fed., as chicken manure is the most useful and beneficial for growing artichoke plants under the condition of the experiment.
