The latest research on pea (Pisum sativum L.), carried out on irrigated land, commenced at the Kazakh Research Institute of Agriculture and Plant Growing, Almaty Region, Kazakhstan. The presented study sought to investigate how different agriculture techniques can affect the economically valuable traits of two cultivars of peas. The research layout in a correlational design had three factors each, with three replications. The first factor comprised seed rates of 600,000, 700,000, and 800,000 seeds ha-1, with the second factor as the row spacing of 15 and 30 cm. Meanwhile, the third factor was the application of NPK fertilizer with three doses (30, 60, and 80 kg ha-1). Three factors based on various cultivation technologies and fertilizer doses revealed considerable differences for plant height, beans per plant, beans weight per plant, and 1000-seed weight in peas. The results showed optimal outcomes by ensuring favorable conditions for plant nutrition by providing the right space for plant nutrition, maximizing solar energy absorption, applying appropriate doses of mineral nutrients, and considering the genetic traits of the pea genotypes.

The impact of various agricultural methodologies on the economically significant traits of two pea (P. sativum L.) cultivars demonstrated optimal results through enhancement of favorable conditions for plant nutrition. With employment of agrotechnical factors, the variability in economically valuable traits ranges from 27.7% to 34.26%.
