| Résumé : | Water shortage and climate change are challenges facing sustainable wheat production in Upper Egypt. The objective of this investigation is to assess the response of wheat to an irrigation schedule and nitrogen sources at Luxor-ara conditions in terms of yield, water use efficiency (WUE), and phenological traits. The field experiment was carried out at Armant, Luxor during the winter season of 2024/2025 in a split-plot design with two irrigation intervals (7 and10days) and three fertilization treatments; (100%RNF), respectively than 50% RNF+50% compost, and compost at the full recommended rate. The results showed that irrigation intervals of 10 days had significantly increased plant height, biological yield and seed yield as compared with 7-day irrigated one. Fertilization studies demonstrated that a combined application (50% RNF + 50% compost) was the best treatment which enhanced the seed yield (7.10 t/ha) and also increased WUE over sole mineral or organic fertilization. Interaction effects also verified that compost-mediated treatments were more effective under the 10-day irrigation regime, contributing to reinforce the beneficial of organic amendments against water stress. The results suggest that integrated nutrient management and deficit irrigation could be the potential adaptation strategy for wheat production in arid regions like Upper Egypt. |
