A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of sugar factory effluents on growth, yield and quality of bhendi-var PKM 1 in the premises of a sugar factory in Aundipatti, Madurai District. The crop quality was not affected. Increased yields were obtained with 50% and 75% dilutions when compared to zero per cent dilution. There was no adverse effects on the soil physical properties.
