| Abstract | ||
| The present investigation was carried out during 2006/07 and 2007/08 seasons, in Agric. Exp. Res. Station, Fac. Agric., CairoUniversity, Giza, Egypt. The research work aimed to study the influence of different levels of chemical fertilization on yield and yield attributes on faba bean (Vicia faba, L.). The examined fertilizer rates were 0, 15 and 30 kg N/fad. , 0, 12and 24 kg K2O/fad. and 0, 500 and 1000 g/fad as edit micronutrients compound called ( Composite Voliavid). There were progressive augmentations in seed yield/fad due to increasing the level of nitrogen fertilization from 15 to 30 kg N/fad. Potassium fertilization application had a significant effect on seed yield /fad. Data also showed that seed yield / fad were significantly increased with increasing the level of K fertilization, where 24 kg K2O/fad Level surpassed 12 kg K2O/fad. It is also obvious that the high dose of micronutrients compound ( 1000g /fad) significantly increased seed yield of faba bean /fad as compared with the lower one (500g/fad). In conclusion the data showed that the best production of faba bean was achieved by 30kg N, 24 kg K2O with spraying plants by micronutrients (Compound Voliaved ) in 1000 g / fad dose. | ||
