Agricultural companies could push investment forward and help in production base variation and developing production techniques. They also play a significant role in organizing and providing requirements of market economy. This work aimed at studying economic efficiency of the six agricultural companies that are registered at Iraqi stock market for the period 2005-2016. Capital of these companies was between (300 million-7.5 billion IQD). Several financial analysis indicators were applied such as activity percentages. Average of capital circulation was 0.91 for private company of agricultural production، and lowest share was for Iraqi company for producing and marketing field crops. Assets average circulation was highest for the private company at 6.1، and lowest for the modern company of agricultural and animal production. For profitability percentages، pure profit was lowest for Iraqi company at 21.5 and highest for Middle East Company of producing and marketing fish at 59.3. Holder’s revenue was between (-10 and -16.2)، revenue of assets was between (-5.7 and -11.6). Other indicators were also applied such as percentage of share circulation and annual average price. In general، the work concluded that there is a clear variation on the financial percentages and indicators within companies and this shows that investment is not about to be expanded. The recommendations were to put successful agricultural policies that address losses and why profits were decreased to find solutions even if that leads companies to be integrated or even shut down.

An experiment was carried out in pots under open field conditions in the fall seasons of 2017 and 2018 at the College of Agricultural Engineering Sciences, University of Baghdad, for improving field emergence and drought stress tolerance in sorghum. Three factors were studied. 1st factor was three cultivars (Inqath, Rabeh and Buhoth70). 2nd factor was primed and unprimed seed. 3rd factor was represented by the irrigation intervals every 2, 4 and 6 days. Randomized complete block design with four replicates was used. The results showed that Buhoth 70 cultivar had a significant superiority compared to others in traits of the first and final count of emergence, emergence energy and emergence rate index (54.2%, 76.5%, 0.542 and 21.2 % day-1) and (58.8%, 78.5%, 0.625 and 23.4 % day-1) in both seasons, respectively. The primed seeds had a significant superiority in comparison with unprimed seeds in the same traits above (54.6%, 80.0%, 0.546 and 22.0 % day-1) and (64.0%, 74.4%, 0.640 and 23.3 % day-1) in both seasons, respectively. The irrigation interval every 2 days had a significant superiority compared to others in the same traits above (54.6%, 79.2%, 0.546 and 21.7 % day-1) and (60.6%, 73.3%, 0.606 and 22.4 % day-1) in both seasons, respectively. The interaction effect between priming seeds (by gibberellin and salicylic acids) and irrigation intervals was significant on all studied traits. The cultivars were varied in their ability to resist drought stress, and the primed seed has improved their performance to resist drought stress in both seasons. Therefore, it can be recommended planting of primed seeds of Buhoth70 cultivar under conditions of drought stress or not.

The experiment was carried in the Agricultural Research and Experiment Station - Faculty of Agriculture - Al-Muthanna University for the summer agricultural season 2019 to study the effect of mycorrhiza and spray with plant extracts on some morphological and physiological characteristics of the indigenous cultivar of Okra Hassinawi Varity. The study included two factorials , first one : 2 Varity of mycorrhiza with control (M0,M1,M2) , At 5 gm for each one and second factorial content four levels of licorice root extract 0 , 5 , 7.5 and 10 g.L-1 Randomized Completely Block Design (R.C.B.D) were used with three replicates. The means were compared according to L.S.D test at the level 0.05. The results showed the superiority of M2 in plant height 103.00 cm, number of leaves 72.25. Plant 1 -, leaf area 0.800 m 2, fresh weight of the vegetative growth 577.67 g, single plant yield 426.362 g and the percentage of fiber in fruits is 8.91%, L3 treatment was significantly creased the traits studied above 107.30 cm, 65.54 leaves. Plant -1, 0.784 m2, 584.25 g, 372.065 g, 8.15% respectively. The interaction between Mycorrhiza and licorice root extract was affected significantly on all characters

The experiment was conducted at the fields of Agriculture College-University of Baghdad Al- Jadiriyah in 2015 in sandy loam soil in order to evaluate the effect of soil moisture level and pulverization implement on tillage appearance and some soil physical properties. Two levels of soil moisture included fist moisture level 14-16% and second moisture level 18-20% and pulverization implements included: disc harrow, Spring Spike tooth harrow and rotary harrow were used. Soil surface roughness, number of clods with diameter larger than 5 cm/m2, disturbed soil volume, and soil total porosity were measured. Split plot design under randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replicates was used. The results were showed that Rotary harrow and 14-16% moisture level superior in obtained the best soil surface roughness, less number of clods > 5cm/m2 which was 7.56 clod/m2, while Spring Spike tooth Harrow and 18-20% moisture level was superior in record highest disturbed soil volume which was 761.56 m3/ hr and soil porosity of 55.78 %. Using locally manufactured ultrasonic device for measuring soil surface roughness was done successfully in this experiment with high performance efficiency.
