Abstract: <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A filed experiment was conducted in Jeb Ramlah- Center for Agricultural Research in Al-Ghab during summer season 2019 according to complete randomized design (RCBD).  The aim was to evaluate the effect of increasing application rates of nitrogen fertilizer (N: 0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg N\/h-1<\/sup>), and boron application (B0=0, B1= B added to the soil (2 kg\/h-1<\/sup>), B2= foliar boron (1%)), on productivity components of maize crop (Zea mays<\/em> L.) cv. Salameha 1. The weight of ears on plant, number of raw on ear, number of grain in a raw, weight of 100 grain, grain productivity (kg\/h-1<\/sup>), biological hay (kg\/h-1<\/sup>), and percent of protein in grain. The results show significant response of all productivity traits with increasing rates of N fertilization. Ear weights\/plant, number of raw on ear, number of grain in a raw, and weight of 100 grain were in the control treatment N0B0 681g, 11.6 raw, 25.9 grain\/raw, and 29.4 g\/100 grain; and increased to 988, 12.4, 33.7, and 36.6 in treatment N240B0. Boron addition in either ways didn\u2019t show a clear significant effect except for ear weight. Ear weight was in N240B0 988 g and increased significantly to 1229 g when N was applied to the soil (treatment N240B1), and to 1179 g when boron was foliar application. The highest ear weight obtained was 1378 g when N applied at a rate of 180 kg\/h-1 and foliar boron application (treatment N180B2). Grain yield increased significantly with N fertilization from 6729, 7572, 7887 kg\/h-1<\/sup> in the control treatments to 11894, 11156, and 12844 kg\/h-1<\/sup> with 180 kg N\/h-1<\/sup>, respectively. Yield was not increased with increasing N rate of application to 240 kgN\/h-1<\/sup>. The response of biological yield was similar to grain yield. Biological yield was 48.5, 49.2, and 49.2 ton\/h-1 in the control treatments (N0B0, N0B1, and N0B2) and increased in response to nitrogen application (180 kg N\/h-1<\/sup>) to 65.4, 67.6, and 91.2 ton\/h-1<\/sup>. The effect of boron application was most evident on protein content of grain which was 12.94 % in B240B0 and reaches 16.81 % for the same nitrogen application rate and boron was foliar application.<\/span><\/p>\n
