The experiment was conducted using the Randomized complete blocks design with\u00a0 with three replication. The results showed that the narrow plant spacing (20 cm) was superior in dry petals yield and seeds yield per unit of area (75.54 Kg\/ha, 3721 Kg\/ha respectively), whereas the highest percentage of oil in seeds\u00a0 (30.50%) was recorded when planting at a spacing 30 cm between plants . For harvesting dates, the superiority of harvesting when petals wilting in seed yield per unit of area (4159 Kg\/ha), and the percentage of oil in seeds. whereas, the highest yield of dry petals (79.8 Kg\/ha) was recorded when\u00a0 100% flower heads were opened, surpassing the other harvesting dates.\u00a0 In addition, the results showed the interactive relation of the two study factors, the highest yield of seeds was recorded when planting at plant spacing (20 cm) and harvesting when petals wilting (4985 Kg\/ha), while the highest yield of dry petals (89.7 Kg\/ha) was obtained when planting at the same plant spacing but harvesting when 100% flower heads were opened .<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Key words<\/strong>: Safflower , plant spacing ,\u00a0 Harvesting petals dates , Seed Yield, petal yield, oil percentage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v11n5p16.pdf\">pdf<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ola Kajo * (1) and Rasha Al-Souda(1) (1).
