Abstract: The quality and nutritional content of green peas (Pisum sativum) are significantly influenced by agronomic practices and post-harvest processing methods such as drying. This study investigates the impact of various agronomic practices, including soil management, irrigation, fertilizer application, and harvesting time, on the nutritional retention of green peas during the drying process. The findings reveal that optimized agronomic practices not only enhance crop yield but also preserve critical nutrients like vitamin C, antioxidants, and protein content during drying. This research highlights the importance of adopting integrated agronomic strategies for maintaining the nutritional integrity of green peas in dried form.
