The effect of seed moisture content at harvest on the most important parameters of dry pea was examined.The seed moisture content, germination energy, germination, proportion of abnormal seedlings and 1000-seed weight Sets were analyzed in three dry pea cultivars (Jezero, Javor and NS-Junior) and at eight harvest stages.At the first harvest stage, seed moisture content was 20.44%, while at the eighth stage it was 11.
26%.The best seed quality, with germination energy of 81.70% and germination of 90.11%, was at the sixth harvest time when seed moisture content was 12.
92%.The poorest seed quality one was at the first harvest stage, ZINC CITRATE 50 MG with germination energy of 68.55% and germination of 78.56%.
Cultivar Jezero, with shorter growing season, determinant stem growth and uniform maturity, had the highest germination energy (82.00%), germination (92.21%) and percent of abnormal seedlings (1.96%).
Cultivar NS Junior, with the longest growing season, indeterminant stem growth and non-uniform maturity, had the lowest germination energy (70.39%) and germination (76.54%), and the highest percent of abnormal seedlings (3.58%).
