Crop productivity and variety differences in the content of major nutrient elements in the seeds of garden bean

Bean is a valuable food plant. According to the sown area in the world, bean takes the second place after the soybeans among the cereals (about 24 million hectares). In Russia the area for it is about 53 thousand hectares. The average yield of the varieties of garden bean seeds in the South Transurals on the average for 3 years of study formed at a good level and amounted to the following varieties: Rubin – 2.31, Snezhana (Krasnodar) – 2.54, Oran – 2.12 t/ha. Vegetable bean varieties formed a good crop for the climatic zone, respectively: Moscow White (standard) – 2.75, Sobrat (Krasnodar) – 1.53, Amalthea (Krasnodar) – 1.79 t/ha; Novosibirsk vegetable bean varieties: Darina – 1.53, Solnyshko – 1.47, Viola – 1.40, Yantarnaya – 1.47 t/ha. It is established that there are varietal differences, i.e. the reaction of varieties on the accumulation of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in the seeds.
