Effect of nitroxin and humic acid on yield and yield components of faba bean

Abstract

Quality and quantity improvement of crops using organic matter and low-cost method in the field is very important. Bio-fertilizer nitroxin and humic acid can increase root and shoot biomass through improved intake of nutrition and they can lead to quality and quantity improvement of product. An experiment was carried out as a completely randomized block design with 4 treatments to study the effect of nitroxin and humic acid on faba bean (Vicia faba L.) traits. Trial treatments included control, nitroxin, humic acid and nitroxin + humic acid. Analysis of variance showed that the effect of combination of nitroxin + humic acid was significant (p< 1%) on some traits such as stem height and yield of faba bean. The highest yield (2,315 kg ha-1) was obtained under nitroxin + humic acid treatment.nema
