N2  - Two experiments were carried out at test and research station of Tractors and Farm machinery at Sabahia, Alexandria Governorate, 
Egypt during 2016/2017 season to study the effect of liquid Biogas fertilizer on vegetative growth, chemical composition and essential 
oil% on fennel plants. The remaining mixture of the process of fermentation of organic and exogenous waste from the fermentation is 
called the name of the biogas fertilizer. This fertilizer can be dried and converted into organic liquid or dry fertilizer and used 
in the fertilization of various agricultural crops very efficiently and because of its reliable price and dispense with mineral fertilizers 
which are expensive and harmful to humans .The experimental design was split plot with three replicates. The main plots were conducted for 
two rates of liquid biogas fertilizer (15) and (25) m3 / fed with Three levels of concentration of biogas fertilizer level 1 (10%), 
Level 2 (20%) and Level 3 (30%) the subplots were occupied by three levels of irrigation (50%, 75% and 100%)from the maximum irrigation 
rate of 4000m3/fed . The main results could be summarized as follows (1) Application biogas liquid fertilizer level at 30% (25m3/Fed) 
gave the highest mean values of all studied characters under the third level of water irrigation (50%).Essential oil% and majors 
compound % for the Foeniculum vulgare tested in the study. The results also showed that the highest value for water use efficiency 
(WUE) was 0.56 for the treatment (Z2Q3I3) and the highest value for nitrogen fertilizer use efficiency (NUE) was 14.5 for the 
treatment (Z1Q1I3).However, all traits under study increased significantly due to biogas liquid fertilizer treatments over the 
control treatment
