“…These substances may promote enzymes linked to C and N assimilation pathways, thereby increas ing nutrient uptake and assimilation (Canellas et al 2015;Hernandez et al 2015;Khan et al 2015;Olivares et al 2015). Similar results were observed by Amiri, Ismaili, and Hosseinzadeh (2017) which reported an increase of number of pods in Chickpea supplied by vermicompost.…”

“…Indeed, plant height increased by a rate of 0.4 (20% VCT) and 0.5 cm per day (10% VCT) from treatment to the end of the experiment, while control plants grew 0.3 cm per day. Similar results using verrnicompost in the substrate or as a spray drench applied to the roots have been reported in cereals, fruits, and le gum es (Amiri, Ismaili, and Hosseinzadeh 2017;Doan et al 2013;Fernandez-Luquefio et al 2010;Hosseinzadeh, Amiri, and Ismaili 2016;Khan et al 2015;Manh and Wang 2014;Yang et al 2015;Zhang et al 2011), or as a foliar spray (Kim et al 2015), or both (Olivares et al 2015).…”

“…The greatest effect of humic substances is in improving root nutrition (Du Jardin 2015), which results in greater shoot growth and increased dry weight (Hosseinzadeh, Amiri, and Ismaili 2016;Rose et al 2014), as observed in this study (Table 1). Plant height increase was already observed on other legume species treated by vermicompost (Amiri, Ismaili, and Hosseinzadeh 2017;Sinha et al 2010). No information is available on faba bean.…”

This study investigatecl the effect of vermicompost tea (VCT) as a natural foliar fertilizer in faba bean. To determine the effect of ver at different doses on the growth and reproduc tion of faba bean, ver was producecl and three different concentrations (0, 10, and 20% VCl) were appliecl as a foliar fertilizer to faba bean plants. Plant height, number of flowers, and pods per plant as well as soluble sugars were measurecl weekl y after treatment for a period of 11 weeks. Treatecl plants were larger and had more flowers per clump, as well as more clumps and pods per plant than the contrai. Moreover, treatecl plants reachecl the flowering stage at least 3 weeks earlier than the contrai. This could be explainecl by the presence of nutrients, humic acid, and probably hormones in ver, which may positively affect growth, reproduction, and yield. Treatment at 10% VCT presentecl better values than 20% VCT. The latter containecl more humic acid, which probably limitecl growth and flower ing. The soluble sugar and protein contents were higher in treatecl plants, and the highest values coincidecl with the flowering and reproductive stages. Similarly, seecls produced by treatecl plants were richer in protein that control seecls. These results indicate that 10% VCT is a useful fertilizer to improve growth in faba bean. This study highlights the possibility of using ver as a foliar fertilizer to increase growth in faba bean.

“…Environmental stresses are the most important factor that limits crop production of chickpea. The most critical environmental stresses that have a negative effect on crop production are water and heat stresses (Rahbarian et al 2011;Amiri et al 2017). Although, chickpea in comparison with other legumes is more resistant to water stress but water stress is the main factor in reducing the physiological and morphological characteristics (Ganjeali and Nezami 2008).…”

Common bacterial blight (CBB) is an economically important disease that results in quantitative and qualitative yield reductions across the world. Field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the integration of host resistance, vermicompost (VC) seed soaking, and bactericide foliar application against CBB development, nodulation, and agronomic performances of common bean varieties in southern Ethiopia in 2021 and 2022. Two bean varieties (Remeda [moderately resistant] and Awash‐01 [susceptible]), VC (soaking and non‐soaking), and bactericide spraying (unsprayed, 7‐, 14‐, and 21‐day intervals) were regarded as treatments and factorially arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The combined analysis of variance over years revealed significant (p < 0.05) variations in disease severity, area under disease progress curve (AUDPC), nodule, and agronomic parameters between varieties, VC, bactericide spray intervals, and the interaction of the three factors. Seed soaking with VC and three times foliar bactericide application at the 7‐day interval recorded the lowest terminal disease severity (21.30%) and AUDPC (791.67%‐days) and the highest grain yield (4128.80 kg ha−1), nodule, and other agronomic traits for the variety Remeda over the other treatments. Moreover, the same treatment also obtained the highest net benefit of $2729.88 ha−1 and marginal rate of return of 15.94 over untreated plots of the variety Remeda. Similar trends were observed for the variety Awash‐01. Therefore, the findings indicate that the integration of VC seed soaking, thrice application of bactericide at the 7‐day interval along with the variety Remeda can be employed to curtail the effects of CBB and optimize nodulation and agronomic performances of the crop and is recommended for growers in the study areas.
