Abstract

Sowing date and time are important agronomic practices determining the growth and yield of any crop. To improve the growth and yield of bush beans through the proper date of sowing, a field experiment was conducted from March 2022 to July 2022 at the Vegetable Seed Production Centre, Chapa, Musikot-04, West Rukum. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with the 5 different sowing dates, viz., (17th February), (4th March), (19th March), (4th April), and (19th April), and replicated four times. The observations on parameters such as plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, number of pods per plant, pod length, pod diameter, number of seeds per pod, and yield were recorded. The results obtained were in favor of the planting made on March 4, which was significantly different from the plant sown on February 17, March 19, March 3, and April 18. The result shows that the best sowing date for bush beans was found in the first week of March.
