Evaluation of Agronomic Performance of two Varieties of Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.), INIAP 440 - Quitumbe and INIAP 442 - Sultana, using Neutrosophic Superhypersoft sets

Abstract

The yield and earliness of broad bean varieties have depended on key factors to enhance agricultural productivity in various regions. Therefore, the objective of the study focused on evaluating the agronomic yield and earliness of the INIAP 442-SULTANA and INIAP 440-QUITUMBE broad bean varieties under specific edaphoclimatic conditions to determine their feasibility and potential for improving regional crop productivity. For this purpose, a combination of varietal attributes and leaf stages was used to determine eight treatments through modeling with Neutrosophic SuperHyperSoft Sets. Among the results, INIAP 442-SULTANA demonstrated higher earliness and yield compared to INIAP 440-QUITUMBE. In conclusion, it was observed that the INIAP 442-SULTANA-green treatment is a more viable option for improving broad bean crop productivity due to its higher yield and faster harvest.
