Abstract

A field experiment was carried out in season 2007/08 in two sites in a semi-arid zone in the Northern State of Sudan to study the effects of Rhizobium inoculation and urea fertilization on the symbiotic properties and yield of faba bean cultivar seleim (SM-L).Rhizobium inoculation individually significantly (P≤0.05) increased shoot and nodule dry weight, nitrogen content in shoot and yield. Inoculation with Rhizobium with addition of urea as starter dose (20 kg N/ha) increased number of nodules, shoot and root dry weights, nitrogen content and yield. Urea fertilization significantly (P≤0.05) increased shoot dry weight, number of pods and yield. The results of the study indicated the efficiency of using biofertilizer based on Rhizobium isolate ENRRI 9 in increasing the yield of faba bean in the studied sites in a semi-desert zone in Sudan.
