A field experiment was conducted at the experimental Farm of Minia
University in newly reclaimed sandy soil during 2000/2001 and 20011 2002 seasons.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of poultry manure (0.3 and 6 tonI fed. and
untreated), N· fertilization levels (0, 40, 60, 80, and 100 kg N/fed.) and their interaction
on grain yield, yield components and N P K nutrients uptake of wheat (Sakha 69 cv.). The obtained results indicated that plant height, spike length, number of
spikesl m², number of grainslspike, 1000· kernel weight, grain and straw yields/fed. as
well as N P K nutrients uptake were significantly increased with applying poultry
manure, reaching their maximum with applying 6 tonI fed. poultry manure in both
seasons. Increasing N fertilization levels increased significantly above- mentioned
traits. Application of 100 kg NI fed. gave the highest values of all studied characters in
the two growing seasons. The maximum grain yield, yield components and N P K uptake were
achieved with application poultry manure at the rate of 6 tonI fed. associated with 100
kg NI fed. under newly reclaimed sandy soil.
