Biostimulants on yield and its components in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

Objective: To study the effect of biostimulants on yield and its components in Azufrado Higuera beans northern Sinaloa. Design/Methodology/Approach: Randomized complete block design with three repetitions, a common bean variety, five treatments (four one control). Assessed variables: plant height, yield, components. Results: The seaweed-based (Ascophyllum nodosum Macrocystis pyrifera) Fia Kelp® biostimulant caused remarkable increase seed number seeds per pod, 100-seed weight. Study Limitations/Implications: was carried out during single crop cycle. Therefore, an ongoing assessment used must be more consecutive cycles to prove their aerial biomass characteristics, harvest index, pods m2. Findings/Conclusions: Foliar application had positive some respect control. normal m2 variable highest correlation percentage regarding yield.
