Abstract

An agricultural experiment was conducted in the canopy of the Department of Soil Sciences and Water Resources College of Agriculture\University of Basrah during the 2023-2024 agricultural season, in which a mixed sandy soil from the Barjasia area was used, treated with organic waste as follows: tea waste 2% and 3%, peatmoss 2% and 3% The tea water extract was 1:1 at a level of 3%, and two types of irrigation water were used: Shatt al-Arab water and tap water. A completely randomized design with three replications was used. Barley seeds were planted with 10 seeds in each pot, and irrigation treatments were applied for both types of water (Shatt al-Arab and tap) to the limits of the field capacity of the soil. The plants were reduced to 6 per pot after germination. The results showed that the Shatt al-Arab water treatment was superior in the average fresh weight of barley plants, and the values reached 5.438 and 5.244 gm pot-1 and the dry weight 1.610 and 1.748 gm pot-1 for the first and second harvests, respectively. It also excelled in the average concentration of available potassium in the soil, and reached 703.400 mg kg-1, while the aqueous extract of tea treatment was superior in all the studied characteristics, and the values reached 6.375, 2.130, 6.720 and 2.240 gm pot-1 for the fresh and dry weight and for the two harvests, respectively.
