e0“A pot experiment under greenhouse conditions to evaluate the effect of P and Zn nutrients on yield and yield components of faba bean (Vicia faba L. CS20DK)”
e5“This study concludes that grain yield and biomass yield increased with the increase in phosphorus fertilizer. Application of 60 kg P/ha gave statistically higher grain yield than 0 and 30 kg P/ha”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect P fertilization significantly increased yield and yield components of faba bean.
- Intervention effect Zn fertilization significantly increased pods per plant and above ground biomass at maturity stage of faba bean.
- Intervention effect Zn fertilization did not significantly affect biomass at 50% flowering, root weight at 50% flowering or grain yield of faba bean.
- Intervention effect Combined P and Zn fertilization had a significant effect on pods per plant, seeds per pod and plant height at maturity stages of faba bean.
- Intervention effect The interaction of P and Zn had no significant effect on yield and some yield attributes of faba bean.
- Intervention effect Combined P and Zn fertilization had no significant effect on yield and other yield attributes of faba bean.
- Intervention effect Applying 60 kg P/ha gave a statistically higher grain yield of faba bean than 0 and 30 kg P/ha.
- Observation Yield and yield components of faba bean were positively correlated.
