Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during winter season 2017-2018 to study the effect of different plant growth regulators (Salicylic acid, NAA and GA3) on economics of garden pea. The plant growth regulators were applied as foliar application at three intervals (30, 45 and 90 DAS). The foliar application of NAA @ 40 ppm observed maximum gross returns (392975.00 Rs/ha), net returns (327580.00 Rs/ha) and benefit cost ratio (5.01:1). These results are conclusive that foliar spraying NAA @ 40 ppm may positively increase economics of garden pea.
Keywords: Garden pea, Plant growth regulators, Salicylic acid, GA3, NAA
