Abstract
The research was carried out during the growing season 2020-2021 to study the effect of
Bacterial bio-fertilizer on some characteristics of growth and yield of local (Cicer
arietinum L.) with different planting dates. The research included two factors, the first is
the planting date and at three levels (1st./February, 14th./February, 28th./February/2021), the
second factor is bio-fertilizer and at four levels (Control without foliar application , single
foliar application, double foliar application, and triple foliar application) under seeding rate
(320) kg / ha . The results showed the superiority of 1st./February over the second and third
dates in all studied traits, the superiority of bio-fertilizer over the comparison treatment in
the height of the lowest pod, the yield of the individual plant and the number of seeds/pod.
The interaction between the 1st./February and spraying with bio-fertilizer exceeded in the
height of the lowest pod and in the number of days from planting to full maturity yield of
individual plant and number of seeds / pod.
