MOHAMED ALI HASSAN ALI Mostafa;

Abstract


This investigation has been carried out dtiring seasons of 1997,

1998 and 1999 on 3 productive olive varieties (Aghizi Shamy, Kronaki and Picual) grown in the Hort. Res.s•at El-Kassasin, Ismailia, Governorate. The selected trees of different studied vars. were irrigated by using 5 water treatments (300, 600, 1200, 2400 and 4800 m3• I Fed. I
year).

Results of this study were concerned with the variations between olive vars. wider different water treatments and I or the same amount of applied water. In addition, growth, flowering, productivity (fruits & oil) physiological behavior, leaf minerals content and salt, moisture and root distribution in the profile of experimental soil were studied.
Treatments of 4800 and 2400 m3 I Fed. I year were considered the

best under sa.'1dy soil condition irrigated by drip system which improved foliar growth, flowering, yield (fruit and oil) and fruit and oil quality and yield after the end of treatments (residual effect). In addition, the same treatments improved also fibrous (feeder) roots growth and soil moisture distributed in the soil profile beside decrease salts accumulated in rooting zone,. as compared with other studied treatments in both seasons of study.
