The research was based on the social survey method on a sample of 362 farmers in Shalshalamon and Manzil Hayyan in Sharkia Governorate. Data were collected by a personal interview questionnaire during February to March 2023. Data were analyzed by: frequencies, percentage, relative weight, Cronbach's alpha coefficient, Pearson's correlation coefficient, step wise coefficient, ANOVA, L.S.D. Results showed that more than half of the farmers had a neutral attitude towards use of agricultural mechanization by 56.1%, towards investment in field of agricultural mechanization by 56.9%, and towards use of mechanization in some agricultural operations by 66%. Results showed that four independent variables contributed significantly together to explain the total variation in farmers' attitude towards use of mechanized agriculture by 18.9%, these variables Were: age by 9.1%, ownership of agricultural machinery by 5.1%, the prepare to risk by 3.5%, ownership of agricultural land by 1.2%. This showed a statistically significant difference between farmers in the attitude towards use of mechanized agriculture and its axes according to location of agricultural mechanization station.","PeriodicalId":12075,"journal":{"name":"Fayoum Journal of Agricultural Research and Development","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135220468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of biostimulants foliar application on growth, productivity, and fruit quality of tomato plants during the summer season of 2020 and 2021. Tomato plants were sprayed twice (at 15 days interval) with biostimulants i.e., date palm pollen grains extract, bee pollen grains extract, chito boom (5% chitosan, 9% B, 1.15% amino acids and 0.05% Mo), algeno plus (50% Potassium alginate, 0.92% Mg, 1.75% S, 0.52 % Fe, 0.25% Mn, 0.15 % Zn, 0.25% B, 0.004 % Mo and 0.73% cytokines), fast tunic (2.5% NAA and 0.6% sodium nitrophenolate), and water as control. The results indicated that date palm pollen and bee pollen extracts significantly increased plant height when compared to control. Bee pollen and algeno plus significantly increased number of branches. These treatments in addition to chito bom, increased leaf area and leaf perimeter. All biostimulants significantly decreased Malondialdehyde (MDA), while they exhibited a significant increase for peroxides, proline and total phenols, total fruit yield, fruit weight per plant and fruit number per plant. Bee pollen and chito bom improved fruit contents of total sugar, beta-carotene, lycopene and these treatments in addition to date palm pollen increased vitamin C and acidity. Bee pollen grains, and date palm pollen grains extracts, chitosan could be recommended to alleviate high temperature stress on tomato plants.","PeriodicalId":12075,"journal":{"name":"Fayoum Journal of Agricultural Research and Development","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90573116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meanwhile root length was the longest at 7 days interval and the shortest was with 3 days. The amounts of irrigation water applied and water consumption (L/seedling) increased under irrigation at 3 days intervals since gave the highest significant water applied and consumption followed by irrigation at 5 days interval, then the latest at 7 days interval. Average of water productivity at 3 days interval declared that, one liter of water applied produced 4.45 and 1.16g biomass fresh and dry weights respectively. While at 5 days it gave 3.99 and 0.98 g in addition, at 7 days interval induced 3.95 and 0.93 g biomass fresh and dry weight during two seasons respectively. Also water use efficiency (WUE) was influenced by different irrigation intervals and the differences between 3 and 5 or 7 days intervals were significant in two seasons due to reduction of biomass fresh or dry weights, furthermore, Paulownia hybrid T121 had taken higher amount of water applied and water consumption but the most has been depleted by higher transpiration without using it in metabolism synthesis. Total chlorophyll was influenced by different water regimes it is significantly increased at abundance of water at (3 days) intervals meanwhile total carbohydrate and proline content significantly decreased at same water regimes of (3days) and the opposite occurred at water stress of (7 days). The obtained results indicated that, it is not preferable mainly to depend upon Paulownia spp. in setting up forestation schemes owing to poverty of water resources in Egyptian condition. Therefore it can be recommended that economically can depend on another fast-growing timber trees species in a forestation.","PeriodicalId":12075,"journal":{"name":"Fayoum Journal of Agricultural Research and Development","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74152711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is achieved by analyzing the impact of climate factors such as temperature, rainfall amounts, and distribution over the past years.
