| Summary: | Okro yield responds to carbaryl concentration level and number of sprayings. Carbaryl concentration of 0.17 and 0.35% with 3 spraying are best for effective insect pest control to achieve high return/yield in early late seasons crops. Higher yields are obtained in the early season than late season and in sprayed than unsprayed plots. Okro production is more profitable in the late season than early season because of higher product (Okro) price. Commercial okro production enterprise is within reach of an average farmer because of its relatively low cash outlay requirement and short lifespan. |
