Abstract
T
wo field experiments were conducted during the two successive seasons (summer season 2010 and winter season 2010/2011) at El – Gemmeiza Agricultural Research Station, El Gharbia Governorate (clay soil). The experiments were designed to evaluate some soil physical, hydrophysical and chemical properties, availability of some macro and micronutrients and heavy metals, the changes in metal concentrations in seeds and productivity of maize and flax crops quality and quantity as affected by certain natural soil amendments. Which were water hyacinth compost (WHC) rice straw compost (RSC) and farmyard manure (FYM). Also their residual effects were studied. Furthermore, economical analysis was done by calculating the net income and investment ratios. Zea maize (single cross 10 hybrid) was grown during the first season while flax (Sakha 2 variety) was growing during the second season. The experiments were conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replicates.
Thirteen treatments were used to cover all different possible combinations of these amendments using the computer model represented by Moussa et al. (1986) and Moussa (1991).
