Abstract


Improving garlic yield and enhancing bulb quality are essential aims for requirements of the market
and the consumers. The field experiment was carried out during two winter successive seasons of
2015/2016 and 2016/2017, at the experimental farm of Ain Shams University, Faculty of Agriculture,
Cairo, Egypt, to find out the influence of combination of nitrogen level and some foliar applications,
i.e. tea compost, amino acids, yeast extract, seaweed extract and humic acids on plant growth, yield,
and bulb chemical contents of two garlic plants cultivars "Balady and Sids-40". Results indicated that
the combination of the recommended nitrogen level with foliar application of tea compost or yeast gave
the highest values of plant growth, bulb weight and total yield for both cultivars.
