Effects of Irrigation Levels on bean Growth and Yield parameters

Abstract

Bean belongs to legumes, which play a significant role in human nutrition. An experiment was carried out in a greenhouse to evaluate the irrigation level which could effectively improve bean crop growth and yield parameters. It was laid out as completely randomized blocs design and has considered three treatments of irrigation levels (treatment T1 (5%), T2 (35%) and T3 (65%)) with six replications for each. The recorded parameters were the leaves number, stem diameter, plant height, leaf area, and production attributes. The results highlighted treatment T2 as the most effective treatment. It has significantly improved the leaves number, stem diameter, plant height and leaf area. Moreover, treatment T2 has enhanced the fresh and dry weight of leaves, stem and roots. This treatment T2 can be used to improve the bean growth and yield parameters in Bujumbura peri - urban zone.
