ABSTRACT
A field experiment on the responses of different organic sources of nutrients and biofertilizers on okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench] cv. Arka Anamika was carried out during summer, 2015 at Horticulture Instructional Farm, Department of Horticulture, C. P. College of Agriculture, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar. Altogether thirteen different organic sources of nutrients and biofertilizers treatments were tested during the present study. Experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications and okra variety Arka Anamika used as a test crop. Significantly maximum plant height (cm) and number of leaves per plant at 90 DAS, days taken for last picking, pod yield per plant (g), pod length (cm), pod thickness (mm),crude protein content (%) and maximum net return (BCR) were recorded with application of recommended dose of N through poultry manure + PSB + Trichoderma viride.
