Developing acid- soil- tolerant faba bean varieties to expand faba bean adaption - Faba bean production in Australia is constrained by soil acidity, particularly in Western Australia, South Australia, southern New South Wales and parts of Victoria, where acidic soils reduce root growth, nodulation, nitrogen fixation, crop vigour and grain yield. Soil acidity also limits the expansion of faba bean into otherwise suitable production environments. While liming remains an important soil management practice, sub
