Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during summer season of 1996 and 1997 to study the effect of fertigation of liquid fertilizer on growth and yield of summer okra (Hibiscus esculentus L.) in sandy-clay loam soil. The treatment consisted of 5 fertigation levels (125, 100, 75, 50 and 25% of recommended dose) compared with recom- mended dose of solid fertilizer (band placement) with surface-irrigation method. The drip-irrigation treatment proved superior to surface irrigation. An application of 75% recommended dose by liquid fertilizer through drip irrigation performed better, result- ing in 25% saving of fertilizer compared with conventional method of fertilizer appli- cation. Similarly, 50% of recommended dose of liquid fertilizer through drip irrigation was equally effective to produce yield that of conventional method of irrigation and -,--- fertilizer application. The fertigation increased the water-use efficiency.
