Abstract
In order to investigate the influence of spraying with proline and potassium humate (PH) on productivity and chemical components of Broad bean, cv. Koprosay, two field experiment were conducted at a private Farm in Rowad Village belong to Sahl El-Husseiniya, Sharkia Governorate throughout 2016 and 2017 seasons. Randomized complete blocks design was used with three replications. Height of plant, No. of leaves/plant, total chlorophylls, leaves fresh and dry weight, length and wide of pod, green seeds number per pod, the weight of 100 green seeds, total yield, N, P, K and proline percentages in leaves N, P, K, total carbohydrates and crude protein percentages in green pods were estimated. Spraying broad bean plants with 2 L PH/fad in addition 100 mg proline/L produced the highest values of all estimated traits in both seasons. Accordingly, it could be suggested that spraying broad bean plants grown under saline soil with 2 L PH/fad and 100 mg proline/L to improve growth characters and yield in addition to chemical components of broad bean.
