Abstract

The availability of improved cultivars and enhanced agronomic procedures is a key requirement for achieving high faba bean output in Western Ethiopia. As a result, it is critical to select a wide variety at high density. The purpose of this study was to look at the effects of intraspacing on yield and yield components in Faba bean varieties. The main influence of variety and intraspacing was highly significant (P<0.01) on the majority of phonological, growth, yield components, and yield of faba beans. The 'Gora' variety produced the maximum yield performance at 10 cm intraspaced, with the highest net benefit and marginal rate of return.
