Abstract
The research included study of the effect of foliar spray of three concentrations (0, 30 and 60
mg.l-1) of chelated Iron (Fe – EDDHA) containing (6% iron) applied one time on April 25 and
three concentrations (0, 2 and 4 ml.L-1 ) of liquid organic nitrogen applied three time on April
22, May 7 and May 22, 2019 on the root and some vegetative growth and some vegetative
characteristics of Almond (Prunus amygdalus) seedlings grown in black poly ethylene bags
filled with loamy soil. A complete randomized block design (R.C.B.D) with three replicates
each consisted of 5 seedlings was used to carry out this research. Thus, the number of seedlings
in this study was 135 seedlings. Data collected at the end of September 2019 indicated that the
spraying of chelated iron and organic liquid nitrogen fertilizer gave a significant increase in the
number of leaves, stem diameter, shoot length, fresh and dry weight of leaves, leaf area, root
length, Root fresh and root weight when compared with the control
