Abstract

The research aimed to estimate the function of poultry production and its economic derivatives, as well as the calculation of some indicators of the economic efficiency of the production and its factors, data were obtained through a random sample that included 35 fields, which accounted for 32{8aa0d92a9d700de00931fb59e75e46e902b43698544c97f28f7bec3700555d1d} of the total poultry producers in the province. The logarithmic formula was chosen as the most suitable for passing the tests, also the results of the efficiency of the factors of production showed that the producers were not efficient in the use of the elements of production, especially medicines. The results of the criteria of economic efficiency of net cash income, net farm income, returns of agricultural work, The total return of the capital were as follows, respectively (30461.82, 28778.25, 28023.04, 26282.47, 33027.46, 31343.89) thousand dinars, the capital return was 1.057,  which is a good indicator from the point of view of the producer and the society, and the period of capital recovery invested in the meal And the economic derivatives showed that the production elements fall within the second stage of production. The total flexibility of the production elements was about 1.16. This means increasing the return to capacity. The study recommended that the necessity to protecting and encouraging domestic poultry production by limiting the import of poultry meat. Frozen Kun production The local is able to fill a large part of the local need which involves economic and health important political benefits.

Abstract

This study was conducted on Slaibat depression in Southern Iraq between longitude 45º34´, 45º52 ‘and   Latitude 30º50´, 30º59´, it located between the provinces of Muthanna and Dhi Qar. The result showed that the contribution of wells Al-Ouda and Al-Ghazi in the feeding of the depression. In addition to the contribution of the Valleys, that Slope towards the depression, with different water revenues from one valley to another, with a total of 0.506 billion m³ annually. The results of the Climatic water balance showed that the depression suffers water deficit during most year months, however, water surplus has been concentrated during November, December to February. The sediments were characterized by nuteral pH slightly to moderate. Sediments were characterized during the autumn by the highest concentration lead and cadmium (22.49 and 1.76 mg kg ^-1 respectively), while sediments, which were characterized during the summer by the highest concentration (0.022 mg kg ^-1). The overall concentration of heavy elements in the sediments could be classified into permissible limits according to the standards limits of the World Health Organization WHO (2006).

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to study the infleunce of the role of inoculation with Azospirillum SPP and different levels of nitrogen (0, 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75) of previously recommended nitrogen fertilizer, and the concentration of some elements in the soil of the wheat plant Triticum aestivum L. The nitrogen-stabilized isosperm bacteria was isolated from soil, where previously okra and maize grown on. They symbolized as A3, A2, A1, in addition to the comparison treatment symbolized A0. The results of the field experiment showed that the isolation of isolates was greater than that of the isolates. The results showed that A3 isolation was superior over A1 and A2 isolates in most detected traits. Since it gave the highest nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium levels were recorded at 50{8aa0d92a9d700de00931fb59e75e46e902b43698544c97f28f7bec3700555d1d} of flowering (2.91, 0.747, 2.33{8aa0d92a9d700de00931fb59e75e46e902b43698544c97f28f7bec3700555d1d}, respectively). Recorded nitrogen levels was higher with wheat, as compared to other crops. The results showed that the concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium  of N3 treatment were higher than the others at the end of the experiment (2.72, 0.810, 2.84{8aa0d92a9d700de00931fb59e75e46e902b43698544c97f28f7bec3700555d1d}). The interaction between Azospirillum SPP and N3 gave the highest values in all studied traits. Interference between isolation A3 and N3 was highest in protein (20.80{8aa0d92a9d700de00931fb59e75e46e902b43698544c97f28f7bec3700555d1d}).
