Study on the Effect of Nutrient Management on Seed Crop of Okra var. Parbhani Kranti

The sixteen treatments were compared in randomized block design (RBD) with three replications. The seed was sown at spacing of 45 cm x 15 cm on ridges. The seed-pods were picked before shattering through successive pickings as and when required. The studies were concentrated on crop-stand, plant-growth and development traits, crop productivity, seed quality and net profit (Rs.) per hectare. It is inferred from the findings that the seed crop of okra cv. Parbhani Kranti during the spring-summer (Zaid) season should be cultivated in western Uttar Pradesh by applying nitrogen @ 100 kg ha-1, phosphorus @ 40 kg ha-1 and Azotobacter @ 2 kg ha-1.
