CULTIVATION OF OKRA , PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY OF OKRA ,Arvind Yadav
OKRA
Scientific Name : Abelmoschus esculentus
Family : Malvaceae,
Chromosome number : 2n=72, 108,130
Origin : Asiatic region /Etthiopea/Africa.
Common names : Bhendi, Lady’s FingerEconomic importance and uses :-
Okra is more remunerative than the leafy vegetables.
Tender green fruits are cooked in curry and also used in soups. The root and stem are useful for clearing cane juice in preparation of jaggery.
Okra is rich in vitamins, calcium, potassium and other minerals. 100g consumable unripe bhendi fruits contain 10.4g dry matter, 3,100 calorie energy, 1.8g protein.
The dry seeds contain 13-22% edible oil and 20-24% protein.Area and production:-
India is the largest producer of okra in the world. The major bhendi growing states are Utter Pradesh, Orissa, Bihar and West Bengal.
Popular varieties:-
Pusa Makhmali
Pusa Sawani
Arka Anamika (Selection 10)
Arka Abhay (Selection
Punjab Padmini

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

2. INTRODUCTION
• Origin-South and Western part of Europe
• Native to Europe, growing along the cost of the
North sea
• Annual world production -21million tones of
fresh heads from 1.1 million hectares
• Cultivate in large extent in Sri Lanka mainly in the up-
country as a year round crop
• In the low country it is only during Maha season
• Important economical and rotational crop in the
major vegetable growing areas.
3. ABOUT THE PLANT
• Roots- adventitious root system
• Stem- unbranched stem
• Leaves- arises as the growing point
- The outer leaves are green in colour and the inner ones
are white
- As the plant grows, the leaves increase in number, forming
a ball-shaped “head”
• Bud- formed by overlapping of numerous leaves
developing over the growing point of its shortened
stem

margins die back
8. CULTIVATION PRACTICES
Propagation-propagated from seeds
Soil preparation-
• Clean the land before 8 weeks planting
• Ground must be ploughed deeply (can use disk
harrow )
• Soil should be fumigated two weeks before planting
time if necessary, to control nematodes.
9. PLANTING

- That should not be cultivated Brassicacie family
crops early.
- Soil should not be an acid
10. • Apply paddy husk and straw layers on the surface of
the bed
• Fire from the opposite of the wind direction to
sterilize the bed
• Apply 3 - 4 Kg of organic manure
• Put seeds about 1 cm deep on the lines that
maintain 10 cm space with the lines
• Desired size and only well-hardened, young, stocky
plants should be used to transplant
11. • Transplanting is done on moist soil.
• In wet areas use raised beds or ridges
• It reduce water-logging and stem or root rot
diseases
• Apply fungicide to control damping off and
anthracnose.
• Water to the bed and mulch it by using paddy
straw.
• Cover the beds by using polyethylene
12. • It should not be transparent to avoid sun rays and
rain
• Plant population and spacing influence head size,
head shape and yield
• Plant populations vary according to the target market
for a particular crop

-manure or compost
-N
-P
-K

14. IRRIGATION
• Should be irrigated after sowing or transplanting.
• Irrigation intervals -10 to 12 days in heavy soils or 8
days in light soils
• Should receive enough water for vegetative growth
before forming heads in young plants
• Excess moisture -cause plant to
damage leaves
