Abstract:
The research work was conducted during kharif season 2021 at Research Farm of Department Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, Naini Agricultural Institute, SHUATS, Prayagraj. To examine the effect of different levels of NPK and Poultry manure on growth and yield of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) Var. Syndicate Spl. There were 9 treatments combinations replicated thrice in 32 Factorial Randomized Block design (RBD) with three levels of NPK @ 0,50 and 100% ha-1 and three levels of Poultry manure @0,50 and 100% ha-1 respectively. The results showed that treatment T9 [100% NPK + 100% Poultry manure] has greater effects on growth and yield of okra. The observed results were Plant height of okra (88.9 cm), No. of leaves plant-1 (34.4), No. of branches plant-1 (5.8), No. of fruits plant-1 (21.8), Length of fruits plot-1 (18.8 cm), and Yield (63.98) t ha-1 compared to other treatments. Maximum Gross return (95,970 INR/ha), Net return (25,430 INR/ha) and B: C ratio (1.36) were recorded in treatment with the application of T9 [100% NPK + 100% Poultry manure] as well. Based on the above results obtained during present research work that that the application of 100% NPK fertilizers along with 100% Poultry manures gives the significant effects on growth and yield of okra.
