Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during winter seasons of 2015–16 and 2016–17 to study the effect of fertility levels on growth, yield and quality of field pea genotypes. Among the genotypes, Plant Matar-4 proved the most suitable which yielded 18.95 q/ha with net income up to Rs. 78789/ha having 28.79% grain protein. The most balanced and economical fertility level for field pea genotypes was P60S45 which gave the highest grain yield (18.09 q/ha), net income (Rs. 70815/ha) and grain protein (27.92%). The genotype Pant Matar-4 grown with highest fertility level (P60S45) further augmented these parameters (yield 23.21 q/ha and income Rs. 101731/ha).
