Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Autumn-sown field beans gave a seed yield of 516 g/m2 independent of sowing time in that season.
- Observation Early spring sowing gave a seed yield of only 300 g/m2.
- Intervention effect Delaying spring sowing by six weeks reduced seed yield to 147 g/m2, compared with early spring sowing.
- Intervention effect Foliar application of 10 kg/ha nitrogen before flowering had no effect on seed yield or seed nitrogen concentration.
