Two field trials were carried out during the winter seasons of 2015-16 and 2016-17 at Sakha Horticultural Research Station Farm, Kafr El-Sheikh University, Egypt to examine the response of pea cv. Master B as foliar nutrients application with boron, manganese, and zinc at shooting, flowering, and podding stages. The results showed that foliar application of micronutrient (boron, manganese, and
zinc) at all three stages enhanced most vegetative growth characters, shelling ratio, seed yield and its components, seed germination percentage, chlorophyll leaf contents and seed protein content. It was found that the foliar application of boron, manganese, and zinc at three stages of growth seemed to be the best effective treatment for more robust vegetative growth and seed yield and quality enhancement.
