Abstract
One of the major crop productivity constraints especially in new reclaimed sandy soil is the unavailability of organic matter and micronutrient, which could be provided through various nutrient
management practices. To achieve the aforementioned objectives, two field experiments were carried out in theResearch and Production Station of National Research Centre (NRC), Al-Nubaria Province, Beheira Governorate, Egypt during the two successive winter seasons of 2010/2011 and 2011/2012. This experiment was designed to study effect of three treatments of chicken manures (0, 5 and 10 ton/faddan, one faddan=0.42ha) and twelve foliar application treatments of some micronutrients sprayed individually or in combination on growth, yield and yield components of barely plant (Giza 123 cultivar). The results indicated that addition of 10 ton/faddan chicken manures surpass the other treatments in both seasons. Meanwhile, all foliar spraying
with micronutrients treatments positively affected all growth, yield and yield components characters as compared with control treatment (tap water) with superiority to combined treatments (Zn + Fe + B + Mn) which recorded the highest values for all the previous characters in both seasons. As for the interaction effect, barley plant fertilized with 10 ton/faddan and sprayed with (Zn + Fe + B + Mn) recorded the highest values for all the studied characters in both seasons.
