Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Farmyard manure at 20 m3/fed significantly increased chlorophyll a, b and total in okra compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Farmyard manure significantly increased nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium percentages in okra leaves compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Farmyard manure significantly increased crude protein, total carbohydrates and crude fibers in okra compared with the control, except crude fiber in the second season.
- Intervention effect Farmyard manure significantly increased nitrate concentration in okra compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Farmyard manure significantly increased total okra yield per feddan compared with the control.
- Intervention effect In the first season 75% of the recommended NPK gave the highest values of all studied parameters in okra except nitrate and yield.
- Intervention effect In the second season 100% NPK gave the superiority of all parameters in okra except chlorophylls content.
- Intervention effect Okra plants treated with bio-fertilizers significantly increased all studied characters compared with untreated plants, except nitrate content.
- Intervention effect The combination of FYM at 20 m3/fed, 75% NPK and EM at 2 ml/l gave the highest quality and yield values in okra, with significant differences in both seasons.
- Recommendation The authors recommend the FYM + 75% NPK + EM treatment for improving okra production and reducing the mineral fertilizer amount under similar circumstances.
