Abstract
The choice of variety, sowing time and optimum nutrition are important management option to optimize seed yield. Accordingly, experiment comprising of 18 treatments was conducted during winter 2017-18 and 2018-19 in factorial RBD, replicated thrice to assess response of pea genotypes (DPP-SP-6, Him Palam Matar-1 and Pb-89) to seeding time (26th October and 10th November) and nutrients levels (0, 100 and 125% of recommended NPK). Individual treatment effects revealed that early sowing, application of 125% NPK and DPP-SP-6 were significantly superior for seed yield and related traits. Interaction effects indicated significant response of 125% NPK on early sown crop for seed yield, harvest index and NPK uptake. Significantly highest soil available NPK were obtained in 125% NPK with respective increase of 41.54, 5.90 and 30.82 kg/ha over the initial status. Early sowing of DPP-SP-6 with application of 125% NPK is a better preposition for enhancing productivity of pea.
