Abstract

Two field experiments were conducted at Ismailia Agricultural Research Station during two successive seasons 2002/2003 and 2003/2004 to evaluate the effect of Fe, Zn and their mixture applied by different methods as grains coating, grains soaking, foliar spray and soil application on wheat yield and grain quality in sandy soils. Irrespective of the application methods, the obtained data revealed that grains and straw yie!ds and the investigated yield attributes as well as grain protein, K, Fe and Zn contents were significantly increased by the studied micronutrients application. The highest values were induced by application of Zn singly or in combination with Fe treatments. Grain phosphorus content was not significantly affected by application of the studied micronutrients. Grain coating method with Zn and / or Fe had beneficial effects on wheat production and its quality compared to the other application methods, as the following order: grains coating > foliar spray > soil application > grains soaking. On the other hand, methods of application had no significant effects on straw yield. grain P and K contents.
