Influence of integrated nutrient management on nutrient content (N, P, and K) and nutrient uptake (N, P, and K) of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) cv Arka Anamika

Abstract

The current investigation, designated “Influence of integrated nutrient management on nutrient content (N, P, and K) and nutrient uptake (N, P, and K) of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) cv Arka Anamika” took place from July to November 2019 at the College of Horticulture, Rajendranagar, Sri Konda Laxman Telangana State Horticultural University. The trial was employed in Randomized Block Design, with ten treatments replicated three times. The investigation revealed that the administration of 75% RDF + 12.5% RDN through FYM + 12.5% RDN through vermicompost + Azotobacter + Phosphorus solubilizing bacteria (PSB) i.e. T7 substantially boosted the quantities of N, P, and K content in the bhindi pod (2.41, 0.67, and 1.9% correspondingly) and the plant (1.9, 0.24, and 1.3% accordingly). Furthermore, treatment T7 displayed substantially greater overall uptakes of N (63.41 kg/ha), P2O5 (11.38 kg/ha), and K2O (44.92 kg/ha) in comparison with the remaining treatments.
