The effect of three levels of stimufol fertilizer (NPK and micronutrients) combined with three concentrations of GA3 on growth and yield of pea plants were studied during 1981/1983 seasons. Spraying pea plant with stimufol at the concentration of 4.0 g./L. tended to increase the number of pods/plant and fresh and dry weights of pods/ plant and green pods yield. Also, significant increase in the dry seed yield was obtained from the treatment which sprayed with 4.0 g./L/ level. Gibberellin tended to enhance the growth and yield of pea plants and the concentration of 50 ppm gave the highest yield values. No significant interaction effect was observed between stimufol concentrations and GA3, but generally, a trend of yield increase was noticed from treatments which sprayed with stimufol at 4.0 or 8.0 g./L. with gibberellin at 100 ppm concentration.
