Abstract

This experiment was conducted in accordance with randomized complete design (C . R . D ) in AL- Hosseinieh date palm Station of Karbala during the season of  2015 to study the effect of foliar spray with three levels of Humic acid (0 and 9 and 18 g.L-1) and three levels of  compound fertilizers (0, 4 and 8 ml.L-1) on  date Palm ، cultivar Maktoom. The off shoots were sprayed at three interval in tenth day of march , may and they were also sprayed with 0.2 %  urea one day before each spraying . Results were collected in mid-December. Results showed that Humic acid at 18ml.L-1 increased the chlorophyll a compared to Control , also Humic acid addition was superior increasing nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and total protein in the leaves .

  The compound fertilizers (N.P.K) in concentration (8 g.L-1) significantly increased the chlorophyll a and b and  concentrations  nitrogen , phosphorus , potassium and total protein in the leaves .

The interactions between concentration 18 ml.L-1 of Humic acid and 8 g.L-1 of compound fertilizers (  N.P.K ) significantly increased the chlorophyll a and b and  concentrations  nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and total protein in the leaves on all other interaction .
