Summary

A crop of broad beans was subjected to different water treatments with a view to finding the most economical irrigation policy. Increments in yield were obtained from the sixth to ninth irrigation, but the relative significance of each irrigation after the sixth was dependent upon whether irrigation water was saved during the vegetative and early flowering phase, or during the phase of pod development. The influence of the different water regimes on yield components and on some attributes of growth was studied.
