The study on the "Application of Different Rates of Complete Fertilizer (14—14—14) to Yam bean t' was conduct— ed at the Experimental Field of the Plant Science Department, Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, from November 1982 to March 1983, with the main objective of knowing the proper rate of complete fertilizer application to yam bean for better growth and production. The method of culture was all the same except for the rate of fertilizer application such as 200 kilograms per hectare, 300 kilograms per hectare, and 400 kilograms per hectare
The land was thoroughly plowed and harrowed at an interval of two to three weeks to allow weed seeds to germinate and other wastes to decay. The area was divided into three equal blocks and further subdivided to 12 plots. There were three replications and three treatments which were distributed at random at different plots, as shown in figure 1.
On December 10, 1982, seeds were planted into the prepared furrows with two to three seeds planted to each hill. The seeds began to germinate seven days after sowing
Cultivation was done twice throughout the duration of the study to provide good aeration to the crop. Occasional weeding was done with the use of hand trowel between plants.
There were no serious pests and diseases observed. However, common red ants were noticed which were easily controlled by spraying insecticides.
Harvesting and collection of data was done onFebruary 19, 1983, exactly 71 days after planting.
Treatment 4 (400 kilograms per hectare of complete fertilizer) produced the highest yield of 171.30 grams per plant
