Abstract: The present investigation “Growth and Yield of Pea (Pisum sativum L.) cv. Azad P-1 as Influenced by NADEP Composts’’ comprised of eleven treatments consisting the different levels of NPK, and different type NADEP compost prepared by different raw materials. During the experimentation, growth character and yield characters were recorded. The germination of pea cv. Azad P-1, Seeds became faster with T6 [20:40:50 kg/ha of NPK + 10 t NADEP (1)] treatment and there after the flowering, fruiting also increased progressively in the same treatment. The T1 [(10:20:25 kg/ha of NPK + 10 t NADEP (1)] treatment exhibited the maximum yield/ha followed by T6. A comparative study of the present findings led to the conclusion that sowing of pea with the application of NADEP (1) compost @ 10 t/ha and NPK @ 10:25:25kg/ha was found most effective to best growth of pea crop under western plain zone of UP.
