Abstract

The main factors limiting yield for faba bean production in the research area include low soil fertility, which is constituted of low accessible P, total N, and S. Five doses of NPS (0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 kg/ha) were used in a field experiment in Bore at the station of the Bore Agricultural Research Centre. The experiment used a randomized full block design with three replications. The study's objectives were to determine economically viable blended NPS rates that boost faba bean productivity as well as to evaluate the impact of blended NPS rates on the yield and yield characteristics of several faba bean varieties. On all investigated parameters, with the exception of days to flowering and harvest index, the results demonstrated a substantial impact of different quantities of blended fertilizer. The maximum value was achieved with 200 kg/ha NPS, with plant height (167.5 cm), days to physiological maturity (197.0), and total biomass (10666 kg ha-1). The greatest value, 150 kg/ha, was achieved by the number of pods per plant (19.62), seeds per pod (3.13), grain production (4278 kg ha-1), and agronomic efficiency (1466%). The best net benefit (105955.8 Birr ha-1) and highest marginal rate of return (993.22%) were both achieved with the application of 150 kg NPS. Therefore, based on soil result and economic analysis production faba bean with the application of 150 kg NPS ha^-1was most productive for economical production and can be recommended for highlands of Guji Zone.
