Thirteen faba bean genotypes were grown at two locations in northern part of Jordan for seed quality characters under rainfed (Maru) and irrigation (JUST) conditions. The highest protein contents under both irrigation and rainfed conditions were recorded for 582408-1-2-3 and FLIP83- 24FB (29.7 & 29.2%, respectively). Over the two locations, Aquadulce and the Local Check contained higher than 2% fat content, while the lowest fat content (1.65%) was found in Reina Blanca. Fiber content ranged from 7.76% (in Aquadulce) under rainfed conditions to 11.04% (in 582408-1-2-3) under irrigation. The highest carbohydrate content (60.5%) was recorded for 8054387 under rainfed conditions, while the lowest carbohydrate content (52.2%) was found in 582408- 1-2-3 under irrigation.
