Abstract:
The experiment was conducted at the Horticulture Farm of Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from March - August 2014, to find
the effect of nitrogen and phosphorus on growth and yield of okra. BARI Dherosh-1
was used as test crop in the experiment. The experiment was laid out in Randomized
Complete Block Design with three replications and was consisted of two factors.
Nitrogen fertilizer as N
0
: 0, N
1
: 115, N
2
: 135 and N
: 155 kg N/ha and Phosphorus
fertilizer as P
0
: 0; P
1
: 70; P
2
: 90 and P
3
3
: 110 kg P

O
/ha respectively. All the
parameters were significantly influenced by different levels of nitrogen and
phosphorus. Due to the effect of nitrogen, the highest yield
2
and the lowest yield
0.

In case of phosphorus, the highest
yield
2
and the lowest yield
For
combined effect, the highest yield

P
and the lowest
yield

combination for okra production.
