Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect A 60:60 cm ridge:furrow ratio increased seed yield by 47% in the first season versus conventional cultivation.
- Intervention effect A 60:60 cm ridge:furrow ratio increased seed yield by 128.2% in the second season versus conventional cultivation.
- Intervention effect 30 cm spacing yielded the highest seed yield, 491.1 kg/ha, in the first season.
- Intervention effect 30 cm spacing yielded the highest seed yield, 261.3 kg/ha, in the second season.
- Intervention effect Water use efficiency was highest with the 60:60 cm ridge:furrow ratio.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that RFWHS can increase faba bean production and maximize water use efficiency in low rainfall areas.
