Abstract
With the aim of studying the response of carrot crops to organic and potassium fertilization, the study was carried out as a field experiment at the research station affiliated with the College of Agriculture. The study was carried out by distributing factorial experiments with (RCBD) with three replicates. The first factor included organic poultry fertilizer in four concentrations (0, 10, 15, and 20 ton ha-1). The second factor is potassium fertilizer, also at four concentrations (0, 150, and 200 and 250 kg K2O ha-1). The results of the statistical analysis showed that organic fertilization led to an improvement in vegetative growth and yield indicators, as plants fertilized at the level of C3 were significantly superior in the characteristics of the number of leaves, the dry weight of the plant, the experimental unit yield, and the total yield, compared to plants that were not fertilized with organic fertilizer. Botassic fertilization had a moral impact on the characteristics of growth and the result, as the plants fertilized exceeded the level of K3 and gave the highest values to the attributes of the content of the leaves of chlorophyll and its content of potassium and the sum of the experimental unit and the total yield compared to plants not fertilized with potassium, which gave the lowest indicators for the above characteristics. It can be concluded from the results of this study that increasing the levels of organic and potassium fertilizers added (independently or in combination) to carrot plants led to improved growth indicatorsز
