Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is an important pulse crop grown in highlands of Ethiopia, where the soil and weather are considered to be congenial for better growth and development of the crop. The crop shares the largest area under pulses production in Ethiopia [1]. Faba bean is a crop of manifold merits in the economy of the farming communities in the highlands of Ethiopia and serves as income and source of food to farmers, earns foreign exchange to country, and plays a significant role in soil fertility restoration in crop rotation through fixation of atmospheric nitrogen.
