Abstract

Municipality Sewage and effluents from Shah Udyog and Dairy Farming were taken to assess the flowering behavior and yield of pea. The effluents from Dairy Farming initiated flowering earlier than the other effluents while effluents of Shah Udyog retarded comparatively. The same trend was followed for anthesis, withering and pod appearance. Duration of anthesis was found increasing in the order: Dairy Farming, Municipality Sewage, Control and Shah Udyog respectively. On the other hand, number of seed per plant and dry weight per seed was found in decreasing order from Dairy Farming to Shah Udyog through Municipality Sewage.

Key words: Effluents; Flowering; Yield; Inhibition and promotion
