Abstract

The main aim of the experiment was to found the optimum irrigation level for the germination success and growth of the common wheat seeds. Use of common wheat is necessary basic nutrition which is carbohydrates. I wanted to found a method that consumes small amount of water and still will be able to produce healthy plant. I designed a schedule that really consumes small amount of water and still was able to harvest. My reason for investigating the optimum irrigation level is that I found that some of the LEDCs has a very high global hunger index value. Also these LEDCs has significantly low wheat production and I believed as I thought about my experiment I might help this production rate as I found a optimum irrigation level efficient for the growth of common wheat. I mostly interviewed with my aunt Zehra Gözalan, who is an agricultural architect as I need information about the common wheat seeds behaviors and properties. She helped a lot as I tried to found optimum controlled variables and different irrigation levels. I resulted that the common wheat seeds can be produced with the low usage of water so that drought LEDCs can also produce common wheat seeds. However I resulted in two different aspects. First, average number of germinated seeds is greatest for 40ml irrigation level. Secondly, average growth on germinated seeds in centimeters is greatest for 30ml irrigation level.
