Soil amendments combined with low cadmium (Cd)-accumulating crops are commonly used for remediating Cd contamination and ensuring food safety. However, the effects of soil cultivation faba beans (Vicia L.)—known their high nutritional quality accumulation—in moderately Cd-contaminated soils remain underexplored. This study investigates impact a amendment (SA) on agronomic traits, seed nutrition, accumulation in 11 bean genotypes grown acidic (1.3 mg·kg−1 Cd, pH 5.39). The SA treatment increased to 6.0 (an 11.31% increase) reduced DTPA-Cd by 37.1%. Although average yield decreased marginally 8.74%, it remained within 10% national permissible limit. Notably, concentration seeds 60% significantly mitigated Mn Al toxicity. Additionally, enhanced levels essential macronutrients (Ca, Mg, P, S) micronutrients (Mo, Cu) while lowering Phytate (Phy)/Ca, Phy/Mg, Phy/P ratios, thus improving mineral nutrient bioavailability. Among genotypes, F3, F5, F6 showed most favorable balance quality, following application. provides valuable insights into effectiveness fortification mitigation farmland.
