Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most widely consumed grain legume in Europe, yet dry bean production in Hungary remains below domestic demand. This study aimed to identify optimal cultivation strategies for improving yield by evaluating the combined effects of sowing time, plant density, and fertiliser dose across three dry bean varieties under field conditions in Nyíregyháza (Hungary) from 2015 to 2017. The results revealed that all three agronomic factors significantly influenced yield and its components, with varietal differences in response patterns. Sowing time and plant density consistently affected pod number, thousand-seed weight, and yield per plant. Fertiliser application had a more variable impact, depending on the variety and year. The findings underline the importance of variety-specific recommendations to optimise yield under varying environmental and soil conditions.
