Abstract

Background and Objectives: Forage production from autumn legumes is considered as a solution to adapt to drought and climate change. Tannin is considered one of the most important anti-nutritional factors in beans. Low tannin cultivars of beans are important in food security, human consumption, animal feed and poultry feed. This study was conducted in order to evaluate the quantitative and qualitative performance of forage of low-tannin varieties of broad beans in autumn cultivation.
 
Materials and Methods: This experiment was carried out as a randomized complete block design with 3 replications during 2023. In this study, 9 low tannin lines of Faba bean and two control cultivars Mehta (low tannin) and Shadan (high tannin) were compared and evaluated in two environments of drought stress and normal irrigation in terms of quantity and quality of forage.                                                                               
 
Results: The results of composite variance analysis in two separate environments (ideal irrigation environment and stress environment) showed that the interaction effect of cultivar × drought stress on the traits of number of branches, number of pods, more forage yield, dry forage yield, more pod weight at the level of 1% and on the traits of insoluble fiber in Neutral detergent (NDF and phosphorus) was significant at 5% level. The comparison of the average interaction effects of drought stress and variety showed that in optimal irrigation (without stress) genotypes WRB1-3, FLIP03-07FB, BPL4104 and variety shadan had the highest forage yield with 37410, 36670, 36330, 35720 kg per hectare, respectively. had the Genotype WRB1-3 had more forage yield than Mahta control 8730 kg/ha and Shadan control 1690 kg/ha. Genotype WRB1-3 had more forage yield than Mahta control 8730 kg/ha and Shadan control 1690 kg/ha. FLIP03-07FB genotype, shadan cultivar and WRB1-3 genotype had the highest dry forage yield of 5220, 5063 and 4925 kg/ha, and the dry forage yield of FLIP03-07FB genotype was 1216 kg/ha more than the Mahta control. Also, in the conditions of drought stress, genotypes BPL4104, WRB1-5 and cultivar Shadan are the most forage at the amount of 22330, 20890 and 20670 kg per hectare and genotype S2008,034 and cultivars Mahta and Shadan at the amount of 3209, 2900 and 2890 kg per hectare respectively. They had hectares of dry forage. BPL4104 genotypes had more forage yield than Mahta control 2330 kg/ha and Shadan control 1660 kg/ha. In optimal irrigation (without stress), FLIP03-07FB genotype had more pods and pod weight, Shadan variety had more phosphorus and insoluble fiber in acid detergent (NDF), and Mahta variety had the highest phosphorus percentage. In the drought stress environment, genotype BPL4104 had the highest number of pods and percentage of phosphorus, genotype WRB1-5 had the highest number of branches, and genotype S2008,033 had the highest amount of insoluble fiber in the neutral detergent (NDF).
 
Conclusion: According to the results, it can be stated that drought stress after the flowering stage caused a decrease in the yield of fresh and dry forage and an increase in ADF, CF, and NDF values in all cultivars. FLIP03-07FB genotype had higher performance than other genotypes in both environments, so after evaluating its performance in compatibility tests and obtaining favorable results, its cultivation can be recommended.
