Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Effect of phosphorus levels and Rhizobium culture on growth, yield and quality of early varieties of Garden pea (Pisum sativum L.)” was carried out at the Horticulture Research Farm, A.K.S University, Satna (M.P). The field experiment was conducted during the rabi season of 2017-2018. The experiment was conducted in randomized block design with (factorial) 3 replications. The maximum pod yield 46.08 q/ha was obtained by the effective use of phosphorus @ 60kgP₂O₅/ha. Outstanding pod yield ie 47.50q/ha was obtained when Jawahar matar-3 was evaluated. Interactive use of V₂Rh₁P₂ (Jawahar matar-3 + with Rhizobium inoculation) produced a large quantity of pod yield ie 48.50 q/ha which was significantly outstanding among rest of the combinations. Shelling percent and protein content was found to be significantly more and it was 43.68% and 7.15% due to individual use of phosphorus @ 60kgP₂O₅/ha respectively.
