Enhances Soil Health and Improving mineral phosphorous Fertilizer use Efficiency for Faba Bean Plants ( Vicia faba L.) using Organic and Bio-Fertilizers
Using management practices that improve soil health and increase productivity and profitability an important think. Two field experiments were conducted in the Experimental Farm of Sids Agricultural Research Station, (ARC) Beni-Suif Governorate, Egypt during 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 seasons to study how to enhances soil health and increase use efficiency of mineral phosphorous fertilizer (0, 50 and 100% recommended rate of phosphorous fertilizer, RRP) by using organic fertilizer (5 t ha-1 compost) and/or bio-fertilizer (phosphorine inoculation) and its effects on growth parameters, yield components, yield and its components, nutrients status and phosphorous use efficiency for mineral phosphorous fertilizer. The results indicate that increasing phosphorous levels up to 100 % RRP increased all studied growth parameters, and improved yield and its components as well as nutritional values. Also, application of organic manure and bio-fertilizer solely or in combination enhanced all studied characters of faba bean. Using organic manure mixed with phosphorine inoculation beside 50% RRP of mineral phosphorous fertilizer resulted in increased yield quantity and quality statistically equal to these produced under 100 % RRP, which means that it can be save about 50% of mineral phosphorous fertilizer to reduce the production cost, minimize the environmental pollution and Improve soil health. Also, it can be concluded that using organic fertilizer and bio- fertilizer improved phosphorous use efficiency when applied with 50 % reduction in RRP, which resulted in faba bean production equal to 100% RRP and enhanced soil health through increasing OC content, beneficial microbial population and nutrients availability.
