Abstract

A field experiment was conducted in 2018-2019 in Iraq according split-plot. The varieties as main treatment (Baghdad 2 and Sham 6), spraying dates (elongation stage, endothelium stage and flowering stage) sub-treatment while the humic acid concentrations occupied (3,1.5,0 cm³. L^-1) as sub-treatment. The differences were significant between different treatments. The variety Baghdad 2 was significantly superior in traits, plant height, number of branches, spikes, grains per spike, and weight of grain. The total yield of grains was 9.13 ton. ha^-1. The spraying dates showed significant differences, as the spraying at the flowering stage was better in most characteristics, area of the flag leaf, spike length, number of grains/ pike-, weight of grain.gm, and total yield Spray at the endometrium stage resulted in maximum height, spike, while spray at the highest value in the variety number of beaches reached 434.79 beaches .m², the number of spikes.m² 380.21 spike.m². The humic acid concentrations showed a significant difference. The humic acid as resulted in maximum plant height, area of flag, number of tillersperm2, spike length, number of spikes per m², the number of grains per spike, weight of 1000 grain and the total yield of grains. The interaction between the varieties and the spraying dates C and S, the combination C2 + S3 was superior to the size of the flag leaf area cm², weight 1000 grain.gm and the total yield of grains ton. ha^-1. 36.74 cm², 8.60 cm, 37.83 g, 9.97 ton. ha^-1.
