Abstract | ||||
Series of experiments were conducted in Six October farm East Oweinat - New Valley governorate during the winter season 2009/2010 (preliminary screening two filed experiments), and the successive winter seasons of 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 respectively (principal field experiments) to study the effect of the integration between new formulas of Effective Microorganisms “EM” soil amendments and foliar fertilization on Vicia faba L. var. Giza 40 growth and productivity. At preliminary experiments data were recorded two times during plant growth i.e. at 65 days after sowing date; plant height (cm), plant shoot and root fresh weights (g), plant shoot and root dry weights (g), 4th leaf area (cm2), total pigments (SPDA),and at harvest time, the biological and seed yields (ton/ha) and harvest index (%).While at the principal field experiment data were collected twice during plant growth i.e. at 65 days after sowing date,4th leaf area (cm2) and total pigments (SPDA), and at harvest plant height (cm), No. of branches /plant, No. of pods /plant, seed yields (g/plant), 100 seed weight (g), biological yield (ton/ha), seed yield (ton/ha), straw yield (ton/ha). Results indicated that under severe heat and water stress conditions where there is no excess concentration of Fe either in soil or irrigation water, the combination of {EM-Bokashi + OM (1:1)} + EM-Ceramic (1 kg/ m3) × EM5-legume plus at 45 and 60 days with 8000 ppm will be the perfect fertilization programme under these conditions. Yet, where there is excess concentration of Fe in soil or irrigation water like what existed in some oasis of Egypt, {EM-Bokashi + OM (1:1)} + EM-Ceramic (1kg/ m3) × EM5-legume at 45 and 60 days with 8000 ppm will be the ideal fertilization programme under this conditions. | ||||
