Abstract

To evaluate the influence of organic and inorganic nitrogen amendments on okra, field experimental trials were conducted during summer seasons of year 2016 and 2017 at Vegetable Research Centre, G.B. Pant University of Agriculture & Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand with fourteen treatment combinations of nitrogen through organic (FYM and Vermicompost) and inorganic sources (Urea and Neem coated urea) along with one control treatment. The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Block Design with three replications and the observations on various growth, yield, quality and economic parameters were recorded. Among all other treatments, treatment T4 (RDN- 100% through neem coated urea) proved to be economically best as per benefit: cost ratio, while treatments T10 (RDN- 100% through NCU + 2.5 t/ha Vermicompost) and T6 (RDN- 75% through neem coated urea + 25% through Vermicompost) were found best with regards to increase in productivity of okra with optimum net returns, hence recommended for the present agro-climatic conditions..
