-
The components of yield of okra fruits in terms of fruit length, weight, number seeds, number grooves and weight in Udoh and Okada markets in Ovia South West Local Government Area of Edo State investigated. The average length of okra fruits in location A and B in Udoh market were 5.62cm and 6.8cm while the average length of okra fruits in location A and B in Okada Market were 11.02cm and 10.32cm. The average number of grooves of okra fruit in location A and B in Udoh market were 6.8 and 7.8 while the average number of grooves of okra fruits in location A and B in Okada Market were 6.4 and 8.4. The average number seeds of okra fruits in location A and B in Udo market were 69.4 and 77.4 while the average number seeds of okra fruits in location A and B in Okada Market were 61.8 and 75.4. The average weight of okra fruits in Udoh and Okada markets were 14.12g and 13.66g. There was no much difference between the components of yield of okra fruits in different locations in Ovia South West Local Government Area because the plants were exposed to the same climatic environment, local varieties planted and local propagation of okra plant without the use of fertilizers.

CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 4 ]SUN REQUIREMENTGrowing okra requires
full sun, at least six (6) to eight (8) hours per day, and warm
temperatures. Okra thrives when temperatures get above 750f, and
continue to flourish with temperatures 900for higher. There are a few
cultivars that grow well in cooler conditions, such as north and south,
which can be successfully grown as far North as Maine. Okra seeds can be
started in doors four to six weeks before the last frost date, or sown
directly in the garden once the so ... Continue reading---
