Phosphorus fertilizers effect on the yield and yield components of faba bean (Vicia faba L.)

Author(s): Davood Hashemabadi

Effect of four levels of phosphorus (0, 40, 80, 120 kg ha-1P2O5) from two sources [Triple Super Phosphate (TSP) and Diamonium Phosphate (DAP)] on autumn-sawn faba bean (Vicia faba L.) native bulk was studied. This trial was done in factorial experiment based on complete randomized block design with three replications. Total yield, branch number, fresh weight, seed dry matter percent, seed protein percent, weight of 100 seeds and node number in plants were measured. The kind of fertilizer source had significant effect (p£0.05) on total yield, pods number, dry matter percent, pod seed number, plant length, weight of 100 seeds, branch number and plant dry matter. However, effect of fertilizer amounts was significant (p £0.05) on plant length, fresh weight and pod number. The best treatment between fertilizers was TSP with 13.36 t ha-1 green pods and the best one of phosphate amount was 80 kg ha-1 P2O5 with 13.00 t ha-1 green pods.
