Abstract:
The experiment was conducted in the fish pond through determine the effect of
gibberellic acid and vermicompost on okra production during July to October 2019 at
the fish pond near Horticulture Farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University,
Dhaka. The experiment was consisted of two factors; Factor A: GA3viz. (i) Go; 0 ppm
GA3 (control) and (ii) GI; 100 ppm GA3 and Factor B: Vermicompost viz. (i) Yo; 0%
vermicompost + 90% coco peat + 10% broken bricks + dissolved nutrients of fish
pond water (control), (ii) VI; 20% vermicompost +70% coco peat + 10% broken
bricks + dissolved nutrients of fish pond water and (iii) V2; 40%vermicompost + 50%
coco peat + 10% broken bricks + dissolved nutrients of fish pond water. The
experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD). In terms of GA3
application, the highest fruit yield (405.66"g plant") was found from GI whereas the
lowest fruit yield (336.03 g plant") was found from Go. Regarding vermicompost, V2
showed higher growth and yield attributes which resulted the highest fruit yield
(421.00 g plant") whereas the lowest fruit yield (303.80 g plant") was found from Yo.
Considering interaction effect, GJV2 showed highest fruit yield (470.10 g plant")
whereas the lowest fruit yield (290.60 g plant") was found from GoVo. So, the
treatment combination of GIV2 can be treated as the best among all the treatment
combinations.
