Abstract
In 1996, faba bean (Vicia faba L.) fields in Hatay province were surveyed for the common weed situation. The survey was carried out in the Amik Plain (Kırıkhan and Reyhanlı). In total of 26 fields were checked for the general weeds. The frequency of common weeds was higher in Kırıkhan than that of in Reyhanli.

Abstract
A field experiment was conducted in the Wielkopolska region at the Gorzyń Research Station, Poland (52.34°N,
15.54°E) in Central Europe. The study was conducted over a 3-year period (2017, 2018, 2019) as a two-factorial
design with four replications in the RCBD. The aim of the research was to determine the effect of the cultivar
(‘Bolero’, ‘Tytan’) and the inoculation (Nitragina–seeds inoculation, Nitroflora I–seeds inoculation, Nitroflora
II–soil inoculation, HiStick® Lupin–seeds inoculation) on plant development, seeds chemical composition and
yielding of narrow-leaved lupin. The weather conditions and experimental factors significantly influenced on
productivity of narrow-leaved lupin ‘Tytan’. Drought during the growing season reduced seeds and protein
yields. After inoculation of HiStck the seeds yield was significantly greater by 12.4% (p < 0.01) and the protein
yield after application of Nitroflora I or HiStick by 13.9% (p < 0.01) and 19.2% (p < 0.01), respectively.
Correlation coefficients showed strong relations between number of pods and seeds per plant in both cultivars
regardless of the inoculation variant, however the strongest relations in both cultivar were proved on HiStick
treatment.
