Abstract
In order to study the effects of nitrogen and potassium fertilizers on yield and yield components of lentil under rain-fed conditions, an experiment was carried out in Agriculture Research Center of Ardabil, Iran in 2008. A factorial experiment based on a complete randomized block design with three replications was used. Nitrogen treatments included three levels (0, 25 and 50 kg.ha), potassium treatments included three levels (0, 30 and 60 kg.ha) and there were two cultivars (a local and a new cultivar named ILL180). Traits including plant height, number of branches/plant, number of filled pod/plant, pod number, seed number/plant, 100-seed weight and grain yield per unit area were measured. Analysis of variance showed that cultivars were not statistically significant regarding grain yield. Application of 50 kg N.ha fertilizer significantly increased the number of secondary branches/plant, number of filled pod/plant, total number of pod, seed number/plant and seed yield. Maximum seed yield was achieved when 50 kg N.ha fertilizer was applied. Potassium fertilizer had no significant effect on the above-mentioned traits.
