Type: article
Abstract: Nanotechnology is modern science that would play an important role in improving agricultural production through the production of nano fertilizers, which have unique features that can have an effective effect on that.Within the framework of this, the experiment was conducted with plastic pots of (5 kg) capacity in the greenhouse belonging to the college of Agriculture, Al-Qasim Green University on 1/10/2017, and the treatments included control (spraying with water only), the ground addition of nano fertilizer of 2 g.L -1 .Foliar spraying of nano fertilizer 2 g.L -1 , and the above treatments were applied in three plant species, which are tomato, eggplant and pepper.tomato seeds hummer cultivar of French origin, and eggplant, Barcelona cultivar of Spanish origin, and pepper, charisma cultivar of French origin were cultivated in cork dishes.The results were as follows: The effect of Nanos fertilizer was significant in most of the traits of all plant species.The foliar addition of tomato, eggplant and pepper significantly excelled in the traits of plant height, and the stem diameter for tomato and pepper.While there were no significant differences in the leaf area, the number of branches, the dry matter, the number of leaves, and the number of flowers for tomato and eggplant.Foliar fertilizer did not affect the leaf area of tomato and pepper plants.
