Abstract

The field experiment was conducted at Horticultural Research Farm Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow (U.P.) during Rabi season of 2018-19 to study the eeffect of various organic manures on growth and yield of okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench]. Results revealed that plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter, number of branches per plant, days took to first flowering, days took to 50% flowering, number of fruit per plant, fruit yield per plant (g), fruit length, fruit weight and fruit yield were maximum with the application of the 2.5 ton Vermicompost + 2.5 ton Poultry manure ha-1 and followed by 10 ton + 2.5 ton ha-1 Poultry manure in okra.
