“…2006 and 2007, steadily increasing over time and reaching maximum temperatures above 90°F after Apr. 2006 and2007. Cucurbit planting dates did not affect strawberry aboveground biomass volume as revealed by canopy diameters, which did not change significantly across planting dates, with average diameters of 15.2 and 15.3 inches during 2006 and 2007, respectively (Table 2). This finding indicated that there was no effect of each cucurbit species on the architecture of established strawberry plants, regardless of planting dates.…”

“…With regard to intercropping, a previous study found a synergistic yield effect of strawberry intercropped with broad bean (Vicia faba) when fertilized with 80 kgÁha -1 nitrogen (Karlidag and Yildirim, 2007 This is probably due to the effective combination of a nonleguminous crop with a legume. This is a popular intercropping combination in organic and sustainable agriculture.…”

Three separate field trials were conducted to determine the most appropriate planting dates for intercropping cucumber (Cucumis sativus), summer squash (Cucurbita pepo), and muskmelon (Cucumis melo) with strawberry (Fragaria ×ananassa), and their effect on ‘Strawberry Festival’ strawberry yields. ‘Straight Eight’ cucumber, ‘Crookneck’ summer squash, and ‘Athena’ muskmelon were planted every 15 days from 25 Jan. to 23 March. None of the three intercropped species affected strawberry yield up to 60 days before the end of the season on 25 March. Cucumber yield responded quadratically to planting dates, rapidly increasing from 25 Jan. to 23 Feb. and declining afterward. Warmer temperatures favored summer squash yield, with the highest yields when planted on 23 Feb. or later. Muskmelon yields decreased as air temperatures increased, and the best planting dates were between 25 Jan. and 9 Feb. In summary, cucumber and summer squash seemed to be favored by planting under warmer temperatures, whereas muskmelon thrives under cooler weather.

“…This was probably because faba bean tried to capture more light and thus overcome the strong competition of cereals (indeed, at that stage faba bean plants were high and thin) (data not shown). Karlidag and Yildirim (2007) also reported that intercropping increased plant height of broad bean (Vicia faba L. cv. However, no signifi cant diff erences in plant height were found for any cereal between monocropping and intercropping.…”

“…On the other hand, Agegnehu et al (2006) reported that plant height of faba bean in monocropping was similar to that of faba bean in mixtures with barley with 37.5 to 62.6 proportion of faba bean. Karlidag and Yildirim (2007) also reported that intercropping increased plant height of broad bean (Vicia faba L. cv. Lara) compared with broad bean sole cropping.…”

Annual cool-season grain legumes like faba bean (Vicia faba L.) grown in mixtures with winter cereals such as wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), or rye (Secale cereale L.) may offer advantages over cerealalone crops grown for forage production. A 2-yr fi eld study was conducted to evaluate the effects of intercropping faba bean with each of the above cereals in three seeding ratios (i.e., 75:25, 50:50, and 75:25) on growth rate, plant height, chlorophyll content, forage yield, and N uptake. Growth rate of faba bean and cereals was lower in the mixtures than in the monocultures, especially in the faba bean-barley mixtures because of the strong competitive ability of barley. Chlorophyll content was lower in faba bean compared with the cereals, and there was no difference among seeding ratios. Plant height of faba bean was higher in the intercrops compared with its monocrop at 3 wk after tillering (WAT), whereas at 6 WAT, the trend was different since faba bean plants in the monocrop were higher than in the intercrops. Rye monocrop and rye-faba bean intercrops provided the greatest forage yield. Although the three intercrops of faba bean with rye had lower crude protein (CP) content than the faba bean monocrop, they provided the highest CP yields per hectare because of their higher forage yield than the faba bean monocrop.

“…It has been demonstrated that when maize was intercropped with fava bean, the total yield of both crops was markedly higher than those made of maize or fava bean (Li and others ). Intercropping of wheat or barley with fava bean at a density not lower than 37.5% of fava bean increases total yield and reduces weeds (Agegnehu and others ; ), while intercropping of strawberry with fava bean gave a higher yield (25% to 35%) of marketable strawberries and increased the height of fava bean plants (Karlidag and Yildirim ).…”

Legumes have the potential to support global protein production by partially replacing meat and dairy products in the human diet. This will not only help meeting the increasing worldwide demand for proteins, but could contribute towards mitigating the threat imposed to the environment by current agricultural practices in higher-economy countries (dependence on fossil fuel energy and harmful emissions). Among the legumes, fava bean (Vicia faba L.) is a valuable crop. It is a rich source of proteins, fiber, and other non-nutrient compounds considered beneficial for health. Although a popular source of proteins in many parts of the world, especially in the Middle East, Mediterranean area, and South America, it has yet to be fully exploited in markets where meat is the predominant source of proteins in the diet. Here, fava bean cultivation could not only make a valuable contribution towards protein self-sufficiency, but could potentially play a role in alleviating the rise in chronic diseases. In addition, fava bean enables symbiotic fixation of atmospheric nitrogen and can provide a more environmentally friendly substitution for industrial N-fertilizers with associated improvements in resource efficiency and production costs. From both a food security and environmental sustainability perspective, encouraging both production and consumption of fava bean is a timely and important target. This review focuses on the potential of fava bean as a functional food ingredient to partially replace meat in the human diet.
