Abstract

carota L. cv. T29). Treatments consisted of a control, 100, 150 and 200 kg N ha -1 . Significantly higher yields of carrot and okra were recorded at 150 kg N ha -1 . Nitrate concentration in both increased (> 35 to 200%) with increasing N. An excessive nitrate accumulation in both was recorded at 200 kg N ha -1 . Okra had 1.7 times higher nitrate accumulation than carrot. Early season okra had a significantly higher nitrate (~10%) than late season. Gross income and profitable return responded quadratically with increasing N. Results suggest that N fertilization of carrot and okra at 150 kg N ha -1 is optimum for economical yields with less accumulation of nitrate in vegetables.
