Two experiments were performed in summer and autumn seasons of 1999 and 2000 at EL-Bosaily Protected Cultivation Site, west of Rosetta. Two green snap bean cultivars were uesd, i.e., Emy (extra fine) and Paulista (fine type), to investigate the water requirements of green beans under EL-Bosaily conditions. Three treatments of irrigation regimes, according to Class A Pan, were used, i.e., 100, 80, 60% Class A Pan. Results indicated the application of 100% Class A Pan treatment produced the tallest plants and the highest number of leaves per plant in summer and autumn seasons while leaf area, fresh and dry weight of leaves were not statistically affected by irrigation treatments, except fresh weight of leaves in summer season which was increased by 100% Class A Pan treatment.
