A field experiment was conducted during the agricultural season 2020-2021 at the Agricultural Research Station/College of Agriculture/University of Basra (Al-Haritha site) (20 km from the center of Basra Governorate). To study the effect of four levels of phosphate fertilizer (P0=0, P1=50, P2=100 and P3=150 Kg ha-1) and four concentrations of iron spray(F0=0, F1=1000, F2=2000 and F3=3000 PPM). on the growth, yield and quality of oats (Avena sativa L.) Janzania cultivar the experiment was carried out in a split-plot arrangementusinga randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Phosphate fertilizer levels occupied the main plot, and iron concentrations occupied the sub-plots. The results showed that the P3 level was significantly superior in all the studied traits, which gave the highest grain yield of 6.13 mcg ha-0. The concentration F2 was significantly superior in all the studied traits, which gave the highest grain yield of 5.29 mcg ha-0. The interaction also showed the superiority of the combination P3*F2 in plant height, flag leaf area, number of branches and grain yield, while the interaction was not significant in the trait of leaf area index and Net Assimilation rate and crop growth rate
