Abstract: A pot experiment was conducted at Faculty of Education, Alzaeim Alazhari University, Khartoum, Sudan to evaluate the effect of magnetized water on Swiss chard plant for two successive seasons (2016-2017). The results showed a significant difference in the germination, shoot length, leaf area, shoot fresh and dry weight and root fresh and dry weight. The results also showed a significant difference in chlorophyll content [chlorophyll a, b and a+b]. The results of the study indicated an increase in some chemical elements (N, K, P and Ca) for plants irrigated by magnetized water compared with plants irrigated with untreated water.

Keywords: Magnetized water, yield components, chemical elements, Swiss chard.
