INFLUENCE OF SOME AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES ON SEED YIELD OF COMMON BEAN (Phaseolus vulgaris, L.)
Seeds of legumes are extremely important crop plants which are widely cultivated in Egypt. Climate changes are the most important challenge facing agriculture today. Two field experiments were conducted at the Horticulture Research Farm Elbaramon during 2010 and 2011 seasons to determine the effect of different seeding dates and the plant distribution system on growth, yield and quality of common bean (Phaseolas vulgaris L. cv. Nebraska). The treatments were three sowing dates 20 Feb., 10 and 30 March and four plant distribution systems, i.e., 5 and 10 cm plant spacing on one or both sides of the row. The plant length, number of leaves, number of branches, the grain yield, number of seeds per pod, dry weight of seeds per pod, 100 seeds weight, biological yield, harvest index and chemical analysis of bean seed were affected significantly by sowing dates and the plant distribution system. The highest values of all these characters were recorded on 10 March and the lowest values of them were recorded on 30 March. Among four plant distribution system highest value of seed yield was obtained in 5 cm plant spacing on two sides and the lowest value was measured in 10 cm on one side. Further, sowing common bean seeds on 10 March with 5 cm on two sides had the best results for seed yields under the same conditions.
