Testing of broad beans in forest-steppe zone of the Chelyabinsk region
The article presents the data of experience in testing broad beans in the conditions of forest-steppe zone of Chelyabinsk region. In experience 28 grades of a wide range of precocity were studied. Specific weather conditions have a strong impact on the formation and ripening of the crop. Studied in the experiment varieties were quite technological in harvesting-they have a high attachment height of the lower beans and are quite resistant to shedding. The main part of the studied varieties provided a fairly high productivity in the conditions of the region. For its stabilization and optimization of sowing and harvesting it is advisable to grow a set of varieties of different ripeness.
