Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Mulches improved plant height of okra.
- Intervention effect Mulched plots, herbicide-sprayed plots and hand-weeded plots had lower weed density in okra.
- Intervention effect Mulch raised pod length and pod diameter of okra.
- Intervention effect Black plastic mulch and wheat straw mulch produced higher yield of okra.
- Intervention effect Black plastic mulch and wheat straw mulch conserved soil moisture in okra plots.
- Intervention effect Black plastic mulch and wheat straw mulch controlled weeds in okra plots.
- Intervention effect Spraying pendimethalin slightly affected germination of okra.
- Recommendation Pre-emergence spraying of pendimethalin at 3 L/ha with one hand weeding at 45 days after sowing is recommended for weed control in okra.
