| Abstract: | Key findings • Sow faba bean from 20 April (low rainfall zone) to 15 May (higher rainfall zone) on acidic soils in southern NSW. • Sowing earlier than 20 April can result in excessive lodging and disease risk. • Sowing later than mid-May lowers yield and produces shorter plants, affecting harvesting. • Time of sowing has a greater impact on grain yield than choice of variety. |
