Abstract:

Common bean is becoming an important pulse crop in Ethiopia due to its use as sources of food security and generated income. However, crop management practice that combine high yielding varieties with inter row spacing are lacking at Nejo. Thus, a field experiment was conducted to assess effect of inter row spacing and varieties on yield components and yield of common bean.It was conducted during 2018 cropping season at Nejo, western Ethiopia. Treatments consisted of factorial combinations of three common bean varieties (Awash-2, Nasir and Seri -125) and four inter row spacing (30cm, 35cm, 40cm and 45cm ) laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. The main effects of varieties was highly significant (P
