Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of three sowing dates (1st , 15th and 13th August) with six varieties/ genotypes (SP X VL-7, SP X DVP-1, Arkel, VL-7, PSM-3, VL-10) of vegetable pea during rainy-autumn season 2009-10 at GBPUAT, Hill Campus, Ranichauri (Uttarakhand). Results revealed that among the three sowing dates, 1st august sown crop gave significantly higher fresh and dry weigh per plant, number and fresh weight of nodules per plant, pod yield net return and B:C ratio. Variety/ genotype D1V2 (sowing for SP X DVP-1 on 1st August) gave the green pod yield along with highest net profit and B:C ratio.
