Abstract
In order to study the effect of interaction of micro and macro elements on soil chemical properties, grain yield and yield components in barley, an experiment was conducted as split plot design on randomized complete block design with three replications in research field of Zabol University, 2008. Different proportions of manure and chemical fertilizer treatment were composed of: 100% manure (F1), 100% chemical fertilizer (F2), 50% manure + 50% chemical fertilizer (F3) and control as the main plot; and use of micro nutrient elements were composed of: iron sulfate (N1), zinc sulfate (N2), magnesium sulfate (N3) and control (N4) as sub plot in this experiment. Results of this research showed that fertilizer proportions and nutrition elements, with the exception of grain number in ear and germination percentage had the significant effect on yield and yield components, and other germination characteristics of barley. The highest amounts of grain yield, 1000 grain weight and biological yield was obtained in F2N3 (100% fertilizer and FeSO4), and the highest amount of forage yield was found in F3N1 (50% manure + 50% fertilizer and FeSO4). Among nutrition elements, use of FeSO4 had more influence on yield and yield components of barley. Key words: Barley, fertilizer, germination, manure, yield.
Highlights
Barley (Hordeum vulgare) is a fast growing, cool season, annual grain crop that can be used as forage or as a cover crop to improve soil quality
