This research aimed to study the effect of irrigation systems and agriculture methods on the productivity and quality of snap bean crop under sandy soil conditions.

The study conducted in sandy soil in Al-Khatatba zone, Monofeya governorate, Egypt.

In this study two types of irrigation systems were used namely drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation and four different Snap bean cultivars namely, (Alfa, Giza 6, Karnak and Nebraska).

The effect was studies within two seasons (winter growing seasons of 2019 and 2020).

The results indicated that drip irrigation gave higher productivity than sprinkler irrigation regarding the productivity of snap beans (3.62 ton/ feddan) and (2.98 ton/ feddan) for drip and sprinkler irrigation systems respectively in the second season.

Also, the results indicated that Nebraska and Alfa cultivars gave the best productivity (3.62 and 3.56 ton/ feddan) for Nebraska and Alfa cultivars respectively with the drip irrigation in the second seasons
