Abstract: The field experiment was conducted on effects of Hibor SF on soil health, growth and yield of Pea (Pisum sativum L.) Cv. Arkel at the Soil Science Research Farm, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture & Technology Sciences during Rabi season 2017-2018. The number of pods plant-1 (17.75), number of seeds pod-1 (8.25) and pod yield (89.36 q/ha-1) were significantly increased with the application of (Full Recommended of NPK with (Hibor SF (20 Kg) + Micronutrients Mixture). The maximum yield was obtained in T1 – (Full Recommended of NPK with Hibor SF (10 Kg) + Micronutrients Mixture). Growth parameters, soil properties, increased significantly with the application of 100% recommended dose of NPK and micronutrients i.e. T2 – [Full Recommended of NPK with Hibor SF (20 Kg) + Micronutrients Mixture], pH, EC (dSm-1) and bulk density (gcm-3) were decreased with increase in fertilizer levels. The lowest values related to all parameters were obtained in control treatment. Cost benefit ratio (C: B) 1:5.4 was highest in T7 - (i.e. Hibor SF 10 Kg ha-1) Full Recommended of NPK with Hibor SF (10 Kg) + Micronutrients Mixture was more profitable Rs. 223400.00 ha-1 than any other treatments and recommendations.
