Abstract
A field experiment was conducted a factorial experience designing (RCBD) with three replicates. At Abu Ghraib Res. Station of Agricultural Research Office, at spring and autumn seasons 2015. The treatment are represented the dates of planting 10, 20, 30 March and 10 April, and variety Inqathe, Rabeh and Geza113. Sowing autumn on 9 August (control). After the spring harvested, irrigate plants to produce ratoon, allowing the remnants of harvested plants to re-grow without sowing (Raton). Observed superiority of Rabeh in the head weight (131.83 g) and the number of grains in it 2326 seed head-1, which reflected positively in the plant yield and production by 70.6 gm plant-1 and 4.548 ton h-1 sequentially.
