Response of Mung bean (Vigna Radiate L.) to Phosphorus Fertilizer Levels in Northeast Agro-Ecology of Afghanistan
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: During the 2023 cropping season, an In the northeastern agro-ecology of Afghanistan, a study was conducted at Kunduz University's Research Farm to determine the response of the mung bean (Vigna radiata) to the quantity of phosphorus fertilizer. Four treatments were used in the trial, which included a Randomized Complete Block Design and three replications: The highest plant height (63.50 cm), branches/plant (12.40), leaf area index (2.10), minimum days to maturity (76.50), pod length (6.73 cm), seeds/pod (9.27), pods/plant (18.33), 1000 seed weight (39.32 gr), and grain yield (1.35 t/ha) were noted for 0 kg p2o5/ha, 20 kg p2o5/ha, 40 kg p2o5/ha, and 60 kg p2o5/ha. A straw yield of 2.17 t/ha and a 3.52 t/ha were obtained with a 60 kg p2o5/ha phosphorus treatment. biological yield. These findings suggest that, in similar agro-ecological zones, phosphorus fertilizer use should be improved to boost mung bean profitability and productivity
