Abstract

Okra or Bhendi (Abelmoschus esculentus(L).Moench) is one of the important summer vegetable grown widely in subtropical region of the world for its tender pods. India ranks first in the world with a production of 3.5 million tonnes (70 % of the total world production) from an area of 0.35 million ha. Okra requires heavy manuring for its potential production. However, the use of expensive commercial fertilizers as per a requirement of the crop is not much affordable to the average farmers. Therefore, the application of plant nutrients through organic sources likes compost, farm yard manure and bio fertilizers remain the alternative choice of the growers for maintaining its sustainable production (Subbiah et al., 1982, Gaur 1990).
