Abstract
The field experiment was conducted at the research farm, J.N.K.V.V., College of Agriculture, Tikamgarh (M.P.), India; during kharif season of 2016-2017 to study the Effect of plant growth regulators on growth, yield and quality of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) cv. VRO-6. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replication accommodating ten treatments in each replication. The treatments consists of GA3 (25, 50 and 100 ppm), NAA (100, 150 and 200 ppm), Cycocel (250, 500 and 750 ppm) and Control. The result revealed that foliar spray of GA3 was found beneficial for increasing maximum plant height (96.17 cm), maximum number of leaves (23.79) and minimum number of days to 50% of flowering (36.25 days) while the maximum numbers of branches (5.77) were recorded in cycocel 750 ppm. The highest number of fruit (22.05), highest fruit yield plant-1 (301.19 g) and fruit yield ha-1 (167.38 q) was recorded with GA3 100 ppm in comparison to the rest of the treatments. Therefore, it can be concluded that the treatment GA3 is the best treatment to enhancing okra productivity.
