A field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Station, Sebha, Libya in 2010 summer season to determine the effect of soaking seeds in four micronutrients solutions (Fe, Fe+Mn, Fe+Mn+Zn and Fe+Mn+Zn+Cu) under three irrigation scheduling (100, 85 and 70 % of crop evapotranspiration) on yield and yield components of maize crop. Results indicated that, there are significant influences of irrigation levels, soaking seeds in some micronutrients solution and their interaction on plant hight, shelling %, 100-grain weight, grain weight (g/ plant and grain yield (kg/ha). The grain yield increased by 13.6, 18.4, 22.0 and 17.0% as compared with the control treatment for Fe, Fe+Mn, Fe+ Mn+ Zn and Fe+ Mn+ Zn+ Cu treatments, respectively. Conclusively, the data indicated that, there are not significant effects of irrigation levels, soaking seeds in micronutrients solution and their interaction on number of rows/ear length and ear diameter.
