Abstract

In a trial to investigate the possibility of using ground and sewage
waters as substitutes for the Nile fresh water on one hand, and organic
manuring to overcome shortage in the mineral fertilizers on the other
hand, two field experiments were carried out on a clayey soil during two
successive winter seasons (2006/2007 and 2007/2008) at Shibin AlQanater, Qalubia governorate. The effect of ground and sewage water
was compared with that of the Nile fresh water for irrigation of wheat.
Chicken manure also was tested for substituting partially the mineral
fertilizers NPK. Growth parameters, yield components and the contents
of N, P and K as ground as the micronutrients (Mn, Zn, Fe and Cu) were
aimed to fulfill the purpose of the current investigation.
The obtained results revealed that the growth parameters expressed
as plant height, number of spikes/m
2 as ground as yield components
recorded higher values due to applying chicken manure upon using the
Nile fresh water for irrigation as compared with the other two sources of
water. However, higher N, P, K and micronutrient uptake by wheat grain
and straw were recorded due to chicken manure under sewage irrigation.
The lowest values of all growth parameters as well as yield components
were recorded when the ground water was used.
Thus, this study highlights the usage of sewage water to overcome
the shortage in the Nile fresh water on one hand and imposes the
importance of organic manuring as an integrating factor for fertilization
that can be used for substitution of the mineral fertilizer. Such factor
might be of economical effect due to the pronounced increase in prices
of the mineral fertilizers. Also, such a practice may minimize the
hazardous effect of the used mineral fertilizers on soil and water
environments.
