Abstract
:
The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of magnetically treated water on the germination and growth of millet (Pennisetum glaucum) rich in terms of food, medical and seeking to produce good quality and quantity in the least possible time in addition to reducing the use of chemical fertilizers, which reflects positively on the health of the environment and humans. The study was conducted using plastic pots with a height of 15 cm and a diameter of 48.5 cm was packaged with soil composed of a mixture of sand and peat moss rose (2:1) and then planted with millet and placed inside a wired greenhouse under natural conditions of Jeddah city. The experiment was designed on the basis of 4 Harvests: the first after two weeks (The seedling stage) , and the second after 4 weeks (For vegetative growth), and the third after 8 weeks (The flowering) and the fourth after 12 weeks ( for seed formation ) with three replicates per each harvest . The pots were divided into two main groups: the first one was irrigated with magnetized water and the second one was irrigated with plain water at field capacity. The amount of metal elements , pH and electrical conductivity of the soil extracts before and after agriculture was estimated. It was noted the high rates of certain elements in the soil irrigated with magnetized water compared to their counterparts irrigated with normal water. The measurements were carried out so that the virtual plant included : shoot height , fresh and dry weight , root depth , fresh and dry weight and the size , leaf area in addition to the number of spikes and the resulting grain and fresh & dry weight of both of them. Biochemical measurements estimate the amount of chlorophyll A,B and carotenoids as well as some of the elements and the estimation of starch .The results show the superiority of plants irrigated with magnetized water compared to their counterparts irrigated with normal water in most morphological measurements as well as biochemical measurements. The obtained results confirmed that the use of magnetically treated water plays an important role in improving the properties of the soil and raise the level of plants quality and helps to increase the production.
