Water shortage is a serious problem faced by the national security of Egypt. Two field experiments were conducted at Marsa Matrouh Agricultural Research Farm during summer seasons of 2013 and 2014 using drip irrigation system, to evaluate the effect of some fog water harvesting models (f.w.h.m) of model-1, model-2, model-3 and model-4 under some farmyard manure (FYM) rates (20, 30, 40m3)/fad on groundnut productivity.Results cleared that model-1 exposed its superiority on the total water amount harvested during the two seasons that led to give significant greatest values of, pods, seeds yield/plant or /faddan, biological yield/fad., shelling %, seed and harvest index, seed protein and oil percentage and water use efficiency, and also that model confirmed its superiority and led to give the lowest percentage of number of seeds/pod, number of pods and seed/100 (g). It is worthy to mention that, (f.w.h) model-1 also led to enhance peanut yield as compared to the other (f.w.h.m) during the two experimental seasons. Results revealed that, increasing (FYM) improves the most values of the previous peanut traits significantly, during the two seasons, and on the other hand, peanut shelling %, number of pod and seeds per pod decreased significantly by increasing the added amount of (FYM) /fad.The interaction between f.w.h.m and (FYM) rates showed significant effect on, growing plant and per fad. Peanut plants under the condition of f.w.h model-1 fertilized by 30 or 40m3 of that fertilizer gave best significant values for most studied peanut traits compared with other treatments.
