In order to evaluate the effects of irrigation intervals, mycorrhizal fungi, and zeolite fertilizer on some Mung bean traits, a factorial splitting experiment has been conducted in a randomized complete block design with four replications in Izeh region from July 2015 to July 1016. The main factor is irrigation interval at three levels (7, 10, and 13 days) along with the sub-factors involving Mycorrhiza inoculation (inoculated and non-inoculated) and zeolite (without consumption and 2 tons per hectare) as a factorial. Results from analysis of variance show that only interaction effect of irrigation, mycorrhiza and zeolite on stem weight, number of seeds per pod, and water use efficiency have been significant. The highest grain yield has been observed in irrigation intervals of seven days under inoculation and non-inoculation with fungus, as well as irrigation intervals of 10 days in inoculated mycorrhizal fungus. Also, it has been revealed that the use of zeolite in irrigation intervals of 10 and 13 days increases most traits. Similarly, results of water use efficiency show that use of Mycorrhiza fungus and zeolite fertilizer increases water use efficiency. Thus, by increasing the irrigation interval from 7 days to 10 days, the use of mycorrhiza and zeolite can prevent the decrease of water use efficiency. Finally, according to the results from this study, the use of mycorrhiza fungi and zeolite fertilizer can increase irrigation interval of mung bean from 7 to 10 days in the studied area.
