In 2009, we studied the effects of differentMo application times and techniques on the response of the Kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum) to Mo nutrition. Pot experimentswere conducted under natural conditions using two different soils from northwest Spain and following a factorialstatistical pattern (7 × 2) with six replicates for each soil. A treatment of 2 mg Mo pot–1 was added to the pots at sixdifferent moments, 1 to 6 weeks after emergence (WAE), using two different application techniques (soil and foliar). Bothgrowth and yield were affected by Mo application, but yield was more affected than total dry matter. The response wasgreater in the medium acid soil than in the neutral-slightly basic soil. At maturity, plants fertilized at 4 WAE produced agreater seed yield, mainly due to an increase in the number of pods per plant. Foliar Mo application was more effective,and soil Mo application should be carried out earlier in the cycle. An interaction was found between time and techniqueof Mo application, with the highest yield being obtained when Mo was applied at 4 WAE using foliar fertilization PB Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA) SN 1695-971X LK https://hdl.handle.net/10612/21423 UL https://hdl.handle.net/10612/21423 NO Valenciano Montenegro, J.
