| Abstract | French bean is a non-nodule farming leguminous crop. Thus, it requires heavy amount of fertilizer nitrogen to exploit its yield potential (Ali and Kushwaha, 1987). As it is a new introduction to northern plains, its agronomy could not be standardise so far. The present experiment was, therefore, carried out on agronomic needs of French bean at Vegetable Research Farm of C.S. Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur during winter seasons of 1992-93 and 1993-94. In this experiment, 9 combinations of 3 row spacings (20, 30, 40 cm) and 3 seed rates (100, 125, 150 kg/ha) were assigned to main of 60 kg P 2 O 5 and 60 kg K 2 O/ha was applied to all treatments. French bean variety PDR-14 was sown on November 2 and 8 during two seasons. Harvesting was done on full maturity of grains during fourth week of March. The row spacing of 30 cm being at par with 20 cm spacing recorded significantly higher N-uptake in grain compared to 40 cm row spacing during both years. Grain size or grain proteins content were not influenced significantly by different row spacings or seed rates during either year of study. The seed rates of 150 and 125 kg/ha |
