Abstract

2 Abstract: This experiment was carried out during 2007 and 2008 seasons on 20 years old pomegranate trees of Manfalouty cultivar. Trees under investigation were grown in a sandy soil at El-Kassasien Research Station, Ismailia Governorate. The trees received humic acid (32- 48gm / tree/season) or amino acids (8- 16 gm/ tree/ season) incorporated with irrigation levels 7 and 9m /tree/year in comparison to farm control (11m ). The results 33 showed that, shoot length, number of leaves per shoot, leaf area, number of flowers per shoot, fruit set percentage, fruit retention percentage, number of fruits per tree and yield (kg/tree) significantly increased by increasing water level from 7 and 9 to 11m . On the other side increasing irrigation water amount from 7 and 3
