Abstract: Pulse play a significant role in sustainability of agriculture, providing the cheafest source of vegitable protein for Human nutrition. Nutrient im balance in soil system is the major reason the declind yield and nutritional quality of the pulse. It is thought the low amount of P2O5 fertilizer does not promote the development of extensive root system, vigorous seedlings, promoting good nodule development, and N fixation. In view of the above, the present field experiment was conducted to studies about the different levels of phosphorus and varieties on growth and yield of pea (Pisum satium L), The experiment containing five phosphorus levels such as Control, 20 kg. P2O5/ ha, 40 kg. P2O5/ ha, 60 kg. P2O5/ ha, and 80 kg. P2O5/ ha, and having four field pea varieties viz- Malviya-2, Aparna, Sapna and Rachana. The treatment ware replicated three times in randomized block design (R.B.D). The important growth parameters such as- (plant height (cm), number of branches/plant, dry weigh t(g)/plant, days to 50% flowering), yield parameters, (number of pods/plant, pods weight(g)/plant, number of grains/plant, and test weight), (yield grain yield, and straw yield). The results of the study showed that the variety Sapna (KPMR-144-2) was found best regarding growth, yield components and yield. Application of 80 kg. P2O5/ ha, achieved best performance.
