Management of nutrients, especially nitrogen, in order to wheat economic production and maintain sustainable agriculture and to provide food security, is considered to have an important priority.
Current study was done to assess effect of different rate of combination fertilizer and biological fertilizer and type of application biofertilizer on morphological and qualitative characteristics of Wheat.
This research was carried out via factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications along 2020-2021 year. The treatments included different rate of combination Nitrogen fertilizer and Biofertilizer (Fla Wheat) (a1: 100% nitrogen with nonuse of Fla Wheat as control or N100/F0, a2: 70% Nitrogen with Fla Wheat or N70/F1, a3: 40% Nitrogen with Fla Wheat or N40/F1) and several methods of applying biofertilizer (Fla Wheat) (b1: 100% Seed treatment, b2: 100% by irrigation, b3: 50% seed treatment with 50% by irrigation).
Result of analysis of variance indicated effect of different level of fertilizer combination, method of application fertilizer (instead spike length) and interaction effect of treatments (instead spike length, seed nitrogen content and seed protein content) on all measured traits was significant. Mean comparison result of different level of fertilizer combination showed that maximum amount of plant height (84.71 cm), spike length (11.68 cm), seed yield (7032.1 kg.ha-1) and seed nitrogen content (2.13%) was noted for N100/F0 and minimum of those belonged to N40/F2 treatment. As for Duncan classification made with respect to different level of Method of application fertilizer the highest and lowest amount of measured traits was for M3 and M2 treatment (instead spike length and seed protein content). Seed protein content against treatment showed reverse trend.
Based on result of current research according economically situation consume 70% Nitrogen with biofertilizer (Fla Wheat) at 50% seed treatment with 50% by irrigation can advised to producers.

Drought stress limits the growth and development of plants. The use of Humic acid (HA) is one of the topics commonly addressed by researchers to study the physiological efficiency and yield of crops under drought stress.
Based on this, a study was conducted to investigate drought stress and different levels of HA on the performance characteristics of quinoa.
Current research was conducted as a randomized complete block statistical design in the form of split plots with three replications. Treatments include main plots with three levels of drought stress including 60% evaporation from class A evaporation pan or non-application of drought stress, 90% evaporation from class A evaporation pan or medium stress and 120% evaporation from class A evaporation pan or severe stress and four levels of HA included non-consumption and doses of 50, 100, 150 mg.l-1 in the subplot.
The results showed that in the treatment without drought stress and consumption of 100 mg.l-1 HA, the highest biological yield of 6508 kg.ha-1 was obtained. The lowest rate was obtained in the treatment of severe drought stress and non-use of HA at the rate of 3068.6 kg.ha-1. Moreover, according to results, in the treatment without drought stress and consumption of 100 mg.l-1 HA, the highest grain yield was obtained at 2105.4 kg.ha-1 and the lowest obtained in the treatment of severe drought stress and no consumption of HA (999 kg.ha-1). Under drought stress, the application of HA fertilizer reduces the effect of drought stress on the growth processes of quinoa. In this study, it was found that the performance of quinoa at 100 mg.l-1 HA showed a better response than other levels of HA. Considering the improvement of quinoa yield components by optimally increasing HA and obtaining more grain yield, the results indicate the appropriate response of quinoa to HA.
In general, the results show that drought stress had a significant effect on growth characteristics, quinoa yield. Considering the improvement of quinoa yield components by optimally increasing HA and obtaining more grain yield, the results indicate the appropriate response of quinoa to HA.
