dc.description.abstract | In Egypt, the cultivated area off Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) has decreased since last decade .The cultivated area devoted to faba bean in Egypt was 322 thousand faddan in 1997/98-2001/02 seasons declined to only 98 thousand faddan in 2011/2012 season (Faddan =4200 m2). However, the seed yield per unit area has increased from 8.13 to 9.15 ardab/fad in the same seasons, with an increase of 13%. Despite the increasing in productivity, the total production is not reaching the self-sufficiency. The highest percentage of self-sufficiency was existed in 1997/98–2001/02 seasons (99%), these percentages reduced to only 28% in 2011/012 season. In addition there is a wide gap between the yield potentiality of recommended production package and farmer’s yield, which reached about 20.2%. | en_US |
