Effect of Different Doses of Nitrogen and Phosphorus on Growth of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.

Background: A field experiment was transported to know the effect of various doses of nitrogen and phosphorus on development of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) cv. Arka anamika was carried out at Horticultural Farm of Palli-Siksha Bhavana (Institute of Agriculture), Visva-Bharati, Sriniketan, West Bengal all along 2020. The experiment was laid out in a RCBD (Randomized complete block design) including twelve situations with 3 replications. Treatments contained were four levels of nitrogen (0, 100, 120 and 140 kg N/ha) and three levels of phosphorus (0, 80 and 100 kg P/ha). The mathematical analysis pointed out that growth was significantly affected with use of nitrogen and phosphorus. The figures plant height, number of arms per plant, first flowering, one of two equal parts of a whole of flowering, product length, product diameter shown best results with the situation N3P2 (140 kg N ha + 100 kg P ha). Present investigation, then, indicated better reaction of the plants towardsapplication of 140 kg/ha nitrogen and 100 kg/ha phosphorus that was found expected most remunerative concerning their growth of okra.
