Abstract
Evaluation of ten treatments for the control of Orobanche of faba bean was made in two field experiments carried out at Sids Agricultural Research Station, Beni-Suef Governorate. The results indicate that the variety Giza 2 had the highest number of Orobanche plants (53.3 spikes/m2). In contrast, late sowing, glyphosate application, integrated control, non- chemical integrated control and Giza 429 (Orobanche tolerant var.) had the lowest number of Orobanche, which ranged from 5.3 to 10.3 spikes/m2 These five treatments showed areduction in number of Orobanchelm2 relative to Giza 2, of 90, 81, 88, 87 and 87%, respectively. The results indicate also that non- chemical integrated control treatment gave the highest faba bean seed yield of 1046 kg/fed (6.8 ardab/fed) followed by integrated control treatment (995 kg/fed, i.e 6.4 ardab/fed) with no significant difference. Both treatments produced seed yield 50 and 48 times greater than Giza 2, respectively. Late sowing ranked as the third highest yield treatment with seed yield of 648 kg/fed (4.9 ardab/fed) that was 37 times the yield of Giza 2, while Giza 429 was the fourth highest yielding treatment. These treatments in general, and the two integrated control treatments in particular, had also the highest yield component characters.
