Using of antibiotics it has started nearly eighty years ago since 1940 the purpose of using for increasing the immunity against microbes, diseases and to enhance growth in poultry production. The development in bacteria to become resistant against drugs results from using antibiotics for long period it may transformed to humans as well. "Biotic" feed additives, such as probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics, are one potential option for increasing poultry development and health. More attention has recently been paid to modern dietary solutions, especially probiotics, postbiotics and prebiotics. A300 one day old Ross 300 chicks distributed randomly into five treatment three replicates twenty birds in each one. The treatment groups include: negative control (a basic diet), positive control (a basic diet) + oxytetracycline 0.05%, T1= a basic diet + 0.3% lactobacillus plantarum (postbiotic), T2= a basic diet + 0.3% Bacillus licheniformis (probiotic), T3= a basic diet + 0.3% Fructo-oligosaccharides (prebiotic). As a result of adding the natural additives to the feed, Birds fed T3 gained more live body weight and had significantly higher (p<0.05) than negative and positive control groups at the same time had lower (p<0.05) FCR. Moreover, carcass weight and bursa of fabricius were higher (p<0.05) in birds that were fed with T1 when compared with negative control. The group of birds that fed with T1, T2 and T3 decreased (p<0.05) drip loss and coocking loss. These natural supplements can be added to enhance growth performance and meat quality in chicken production.

The aim of the study to estimate soil uniformity and development using B horizon, Three pedons were selected within Nineveh Governorate (Rashedyia, Talafar, and Telkaif), The morphological description was carried out according to the principles followed in soil survey staff, (2014), then each pedon was divided into depths and soil samples were taken from these depths to be transferred in to laboratory for physical and chemical analysis, also some of sand particles separated by different size of sieves. The results showed an increase in sand particles values downward to the third depth and then decreased again in the fourth depth in most study sites. A parallel curve was reached at Talafar 's location within the deepest except for the fifth depth, which showed an intersection in the size of the very coarse sand (VCS), which gave a lower proportion of the rest of the depths, due to the fact that the sampling was taken advantage of the grazing area and there was no equal movement of that size between the depths, albeit slight. The values of the ratio of fine sand to the total sand showed that they were relatively lower than the values of the ratio of fine sand to coarse sand for all locations, its rates ranged (0.41 - 0.83), the standard deviation values from the arithmetic mean were less than 21% in all locations except the surface layer at Telkaif, which amounted to (30.61%).

An experiment was carried out at the Department of Field Crops laboratory, College of Agriculture, University of Tikrit, in order to know the effect of stimulating the stored seeds of triticale Farah cultivar by α -amylase enzyme using a complete random design (CRD) in a factorial experiment. The first factor was the storage periods of 6 months, 1.5 years and 2.5 years (S1,S2 and S3) and the second factor was α -amylase enzyme concentrations of 0 (dry seeds), seeds soaked in distilled water, 1 and 2 mg L-1 of the enzyme (C1,C2,C3 and C4). Results showed that increasing the storage period reduces the viability of seeds and their ability to germinate and seedling characters. The percentage of germination, plumule length, radicale, seedling vigor, plumule dry weight and radical dry weight reduced from 93.5%, 10.68 cm,11.05 cm, 2033.42, 0.1149 g and 0.1231 g in S1 treatment to 83.88%, 7.53cm, 7.5 cm, 1267.1, 0.0977 g and 0.1022 g in S3 treatment. The concentration 1 mg L-1 was superior in germination, plumule length, seedling vigor and plumule dry weight and the values were 92.44, 9.46cm, 1805.78 and 0.1111 g. However the concentration of 2 mg L-1 was superior in radical length and its dry weight. The best interaction was between storage period S1 and enzyme concentration C3 with values of 96.6%, 11.50 cm, 2212.33 and 0.1288 g for germination percentage, plumule length, seedling vigor and plumule dry weight and with the concentration C4 that recorded 11.67 cm and 0.1353 g for radical length and dry weight respectively.

A field experiment was carried out in Al-Hajjaj district- Salah Al-Din Governorate, during the autumn season of 2021. The experimental design was randomized complete block design (RCBD) in three replications. It had three ABA concentrations of 0, 9 and 12 mg L-1 that sprayed on plants at 4 and 8 leaves and at the beginning of flowering. Results indicated that a concentration of 12 mg L-1 was superior in shortening the number of days from sowing until 50% of tasseling (male flowering) 38.33 days and silking (female flowering) 41 days. The same concentration recorded the highest stem diameter of 2.47 cm, seeds number per ear 682.89 seed ear-1, 1000 seed weight 373.77 g, single plant yield 165.64 g and seed yield 11.04 tons ha-1, protein content 9.80% and ash percentage 1.39%. However, control recorded the highest germination percentage and speed of 95.89 and 64.80, respectively. Spraying ABA at 4 leaves was superior in recording the least number of days from planting until 50% of tasseling 38.50 days and silking 43.55 days and also excelled in giving the highest stem diameter 2.35 cm. However, foliar application of ABA at the beginning of flowering showed the highest means of number of seeds per ear 664.99 seed ear-1, 1000 seed weight 361.80 g, single plant yield 158.70 g, seed yield 10.57 tons ha-1, protein percentage 10.03%, and ash percentage 1.36%.
