Influence of compost and canal clay scouring on sandy soil properties and wheat productivity under Irrigation water regime by Sayed Abdeen, Mahmoud EL-Sayed

“…Purpose Improving physio-chemical properties under irrigation regime by using natural conditioners to achieve the highest possible crop yield and water productivity.Method  A field experiment was conducted in a split-plot design with three replicates by addition of canal clay scouring (CS) and compost (CO) during two consecutive growing winter seasons of 2018/19 and 2019/20. The treatments were: control (100% and75% of water requirements), 20 and 40 (ton. ha-1) of CO and 40 and 80 (ton. ha-1) of CS as alone or mixed with each other under drip irrigation.Results The results showed that soil organic matter and cation exchange capacity increased by increasing the application rates of CO and CS. …”
