Abstract

Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) variety named “Besmena” with the pedigree designation of EK06007-2 has been released by Sinana Agricultural Research Center in Ethiopia. The variety is best adapted to altitudes ranging between 2300-to-2600 meters above sea level in the country. The variety was developed through selection. It has been tested at Sinana, Sinja and Agarfa from 2018 to 2020 main cropping seasons. Besmena is characterized by Medium-seeded with Light green seed color and gave high seed yield (3320 kg ha-1) and stable performance across years and locations. It has about 14.97% yield advantage over the best standard check variety, “Shallo”. Based on most stability parameters, Besmena showed relatively better grain yield performance and stability across a range of environments and years than the standard checks Shallo and Mosisa. This variety is moderately resistant to the major Faba diseases such chocolate spot, Rust and Aschochyta blight, and could be cultivated across a number of locations in the high-altitude areas of Bale and other similar agro ecology of the country to boost productivity and marketability of the crop and improve farmers’ income.
