Abstract

In the Southern region acid soils, cover poor soil fertility and associated low soil pH adversely affect appreciable areas of arable land and reduce or cause total failure of some sensitive crop yields such as faba bean crops. Faba bean is the most sensitive crop to soil acidity. A field experiment was carried out for three cosuquative years (2014/15 – 2018/19), to identify the influence of lime and P fertilizer on the acid properties of soils under faba bean crop grown on Nitisol and acidic loam Haplic Alisols of Hankomolicha, Southern Region of Ethiopia. The treatments were Five levels of Lime (0, 58.5, 117, 175.5, and 234 kg/ha^-1) and four levels of phosphorous (0, 23, 46, and 69 kg/ha^-1). The experiment was Laid out in Randomized complete block design with three replications. Pooled mean analysis result showed that, above ground biomass and grain yield were significantly at (p > 0.05) influenced by the application of phosphorus fertilizer, lime and by their combined effect. The maximum above ground biomass 17.65 ton/ha and grain yield 6.6 ton/ha was obtained at 46 kg P ha^-1. Amongst the liming treatments, the highest above ground biomass and grain yield of faba bean was obtained at the rate of 117 kg/ha (P < 0.05). Although at these two levels separately thousand seed weight didn’t show significant increase their interaction shows statistically significant effect. In this particular study, as the levels of P increases from 0 to 46 kg P ha^-1 both above ground biomass and grain yield were increased. It was suggested that for sustainable and higher productivity of faba bean in Hagereselam in Southern Ethiopia, 117 kg ha^-1 lime and 46 kg P ha^-1 application is the best solution.
