Abstract

                                Okra or gumbo or bhindi (Abelmoschus esculentus Moenth) is being extensively cultivated in South India on account of its (1) short duration (ii) heavy yield (iii) easy cultivation and (iv) wide range of adaptability. After the introduction of the bhindi variety Pusa Sawani, with long, smooth and slender fruits and tolerance to "mosaic" disease, the cultivation of bhindi is becoming more and more popular. To cope up with the increasing demand for seeds, special agencies are functioning in Madras State and elsewhere to produce and supply the required seeds. A study was undertaken to find out the response on the productivity of the bhindi crop when grown purely for vegetable or for seed.
