توزيع محصول الشعير في محافظة ديالى و علاقته بالمناخ

Abstract EN

The research deals with the geographical distribution of the barley crop and its relationship with the climate, as climate is one of the most important natural factors affecting agricultural activity.

Where the research problem came, represented by the following: Is there a relationship between climate and the distribution of the barley crop? Where the hypothesis went to the research that there is a relationship between climate variables and the barley crop, through which it is possible to choose the best area for the growth of the barley crop in terms of climatic conditions, and the research has dealt with the climatic requirements of the crop.

Barley, which included upper limits of temperature, minimum and optimum limits, solar radiation, rain, moisture and wind requirements.

The study showed that there is a congruence between the elements of climate and the climatic requirements needed by the barley crop, and that the traditional geographical applications are no longer efficient in fully extracting spatial relationships.

Therefore, some techniques such as geographic information systems have been resorted to in the processing, analysis and representation of geographical data relying on the superior capabilities of these Software and among these capabilities is the process of selecting the preferred areas for the growth of the barley crop in terms of climatic conditions, where the best area of the Kifri district and some other areas appeared.

As for the second region, it occupied the east of the study area.

studyingKnowing the degree of the relationship using some statistical measures, which were positive in most of them, and the degree of strength ranged between medium and strong, so the research concludes with a set of conclusions reached by the researche.
