Abstract
A field experiment was cultivated with faba bean on saline soil of 7.5 dS/m, where the following treatments were applied: 1) three cultivation practices (Furrow with mulch, furrow without mulch and line), 2) five foliar applications (potassium silicate, magnesium silicate, potassium sulfate and magnesium sulfate) and control. Moreover, the interaction between treatments was also considered. The results showed that furrow with mulch method had a major effect compared to other cultivation methods on shoot height (cm), root length (cm), shoot dry weight (g) and root dry weight (g) at 70 and 90 days after sowing and on straw weight (g/plant), root weight (g/plant), basic branch, pods number/plant, pods weight and seed yield (g/plant and kg/fed.) at harvesting. All measured parameters were significantly increased by silicon solutions as compared with sulphate solutions, although potassium silicate was the best. Magnesium silicate solution gave the highest values of N% and P% in contrast to K2SiO4 which gave the highest K% values in plant tissue. Generally, furrow method reduced the salinity on sides of ridge, salts moved from sides towards top of ridge. Furrow with mulch treatment decreased soil salinity more than other cultivation practices, so it is the best practice to avoid salinity hazard in salt affected soils.
