Abstract: An experiment was carried out in the Farm during the Local Spring of 2023 in the Wasit-Al-Gharraf area in the framework of the agricultural development zone. We conducted the study to determine the effect of plant extract (particularly the sesame seed oil at the concentration of 2 and 4 grams/ litre) on the growth and yields of the known local potato varieties during 2017 Rabi season. We planted Anchorage, Alaska, or Necta Red variety that we imported from NR/AA seeds that are of grade A. The experimental units were twelve-plant-each block and were set up in a factorial experimental design within a randomized complete block design (RCBD) framework (Split-Block). Even more, the plants growing with sesame seed extract attain the highest values of various vegiative growth parameters, including weight both in wet and dry incarnation, as well as the leaf area of the plant. On top of this, the positive influence in terms of the yield properties, such as the average bulb weight, per-plant productivity, and total production, was also noticed. The data show the straight performance of the “Nectar.” type in plant height vegetative growth parameters such as number of aerial stems, dry and wet weight of the plant, and leaf area of the plant. Besides the whole Nectard kind as well scored over the Alaskan variety as concerns yield attributes (tuber average weight, plant yield, bumper yield, and marketing yield). The stand up experiment has shown that Variety Nectard was the best variety registered of 5 specified varieties when spraying with a plant extract at a concentration of 4 g/L only compared to the treatment with sesame seed extract at the concentration of 2 g/L and the control treatment. The experimental results can be attributable to the special substances in sesame oil, which might have positive effects on plant growth.
