Abstract

Study Objective Compare the yield and income of dwarf and long beans in a hydroponic system in the UAE. Methodology • Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) • Dwarf beans (SHADE): Vertical system (60m²) • Long beans (Saphiros): Flat system (120m²) • Location: 8x30m greenhouse at Al Dhaid • Irrigation: Closed Hydroponics System Key Findings Yield: Dwarf beans 1.98 kg/m²; Long beans 0.98 kg/m². Timing: Dwarf beans start earlier and produce one week longer
