| Abstract | ||
| To investigate the influence of foliar spraying with chelating iron on technological traits, nutritional value and yield of produced faba bean seeds, thus, two field experiments were conducted at Sers El-layian Agric. Res. St. farm. In the two successive seasons 2008 and 2009. Plants were sprayed by chelating iron (EDTA) at concentrations 0.04% and 0.08% and / or without sucrose 0.4% as foliar fertilizer. Application of EDTA 0.08% was more effective than EDTA 0.04% . Addition of sucrose 0.4% increased improvement of all evaluated traits. Stewing percentage reached 100% , imbibed water after soaking : 97.2% , seed density 1.62% and T.S.S. : 7.19% . : Protein content reached 29.46% , K, Ca , Mg , Fe , Zn, and Mn showed maximum contents of 1102.6, 56.81, 91.04, 9.17, 4.35 and 1.232 mg/100g sample(D.W.B.) respectively . (c) Productivity recorded : seed yield 13.67 t/fed. And weight of 100 seeds : 77.57g . | ||
