A field experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of split application of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer on the quality and quantity contributing parameters of pea crop. Nitrogen @ 40 and 80 kg ha-1 was applied in two and four split doses in different proportions. Nitrogen levels did not show significant performance in germination % age, days to first flower appearance, leaf size, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, grain weight (100 seed) and moisture %. Whereas, the plant height (g), weight of pods (g), yield per plot (g), protein content % age and ash content % age, of peas were significantly affected by the application of different nitrogen levels. Nitrogen fertilizer level @ 80 kg ha-1 in two split application, 25% at sowing and 75% at flowering time proved effective in improving the quality of peas.
