Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effect of different levels of inorganic fertilizers (NPK) on growth, fruit yield and quality of Okra cv. Mahi-45. Seven treatments were included in the trial. The results showed that inorganic fertilizers treatments had significant effect on all study parameters. The maximum plant height (162.67 cm), number of branches per plant (5.00), number of leaves per plant (37.33), fruit length (14.53 cm), fruit diameter (1.88 cm ), number of fruits per plant (35.00), fruit yield per plant (563.88 g), fruit yield per plot (5074.95 g) and fruit yield (50.75 t/ha) were produced by the treatment (T6) with (150:125:125 kg/ha of NPK) respectively. While the minimum plant height (60.00 cm), number of branches per plant (1.33), number of leaves per plant (21.00), fruit length (7.87 cm), fruit diameter (1.18 cm ) , number of fruits per plant (18.00), fruit yield per plant (162.87 g), fruit yield per plot (1465.80 g) and fruit yield (14.66 t/ha) were recorded by the treatment (T1) with (control) respectively
