The experiment showed that the foliar application with potassium humate (4 g\/l) was significantly superior to other treatments in terms of fruit weight, fruit size and total soluble solids on peach fruit (134.12 g, 125 cm<sup>3<\/sup>, 10.63 %) respectively. Also, the foliar application with potassium humate (2 g\/l) improved the percentage of anthocyanin pigment in fruits (23.53 mg\/100g fresh weight) compared to control trees (17.81 mg\/100g fresh weight).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Key words:<\/strong> Peach, Foliar application, Potassium silicate, Potassium humate.<br \/><strong>\u00a0Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v12n6p31.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/strong><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mohammad Nizam(1), Ziad Khouri(1), Fuad Wassof (2), and Ammar Abbas (1) (1).
