Résumé fourni par la source

An experiment was conducted at the School of Agriculture Science, Technology Research, Sardar Patel University, Balaghat (M.P.). The present investigation entitled “Effect of planting density on growth and yield of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench.)” was carried out during Karif-2024. At the Horticultural Research Farm, Sardar Patel University, Balaghat (M.P.). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with eight treatments in three replications. The application of different planting density viz., T1- 40 x 30 cm, T2- 60 x 45 cm, T3- 45 x 45 cm, T4- 90 x 60 cm, T5- 45 x 30 cm, T6- 60 x 30 cm, T7- 60 x 60 cm, T8- 40 x 40 cm was used for the experiment. From the foregoing results, it can be concluded that okra plant grown in a different planting density 90 x 60 cm i.e., T4 gave the best results in terms of vegetative growth i.e., plant height, number of branches per plant, Stem girth (cm), number of leaves per plant, number of fruits per plant, length of pod (cm), diameter of pod (cm), fruit weight per plant (g), yield per plant (g), fruit yield per hectare (t/ha) at 30, 45, 60 and 90 days after sowing of okra plant.
