Regression and its Relationship to Wheat Production in Bashiqa District Using Geographic Information System GIS

Abstract

Regression is one of the main factors of production and success of wheat cultivation in Bashiqa district, which required its study by identifying many variables and on this basis, the study area is astronomically confined to two circles of width (22 36-35 36) north and longitude (10 43-33 43)) To the east, Bashiqa district is located east of the city of Mosul and is climatically located in the semi-region arid and is affected by natural factors represented by heat, precipitation and winds, and their effect on the wheat harvest in the study area and its surface is characterized by terrain models represented by mounds in addition to the model of corrugated plateau and floodplains in addition to proximity to plains and floodplains. Flooding and upland soils are depicted in folds and rocky soils. In addition, as part of this research, slope maps and terrain maps were identified, and areas of arable and non-arable land were determined using topographic maps, satellite images, digital model of Elevation (DEM) and correspondence of land slope with agricultural and non-agricultural areas in Bashiqa Sub-district.

The research resulted in a set of conclusions and recommendations that the prevailing climatic factors in the study area greatly affect wheat production in addition to the effect of height factor and different terrain from region to region. 'other, which led to a variation in the levels of wheat production in the study area and to the use of geographic information systems (GIS) by performing calculations on maps in it.

This research recommended that climatic factors are important in determining the relationship between decline and increase in wheat production to yield abundance and a large increase in productivity.
