Abstract: A field experiment was conducted in Kutuha village of Borboruah tehsil, Dibrugarh district and Mothiasiga village of Sivasagar district during 2014-2016 on “Comparative study on use of organic inputs in okra” at Dibrugarh and Sivasagar districts of Assam. Combine application of FYM, Biofertilizers and Rock phosphate were used for conducting the experiment. In both the farms difference was observed on plant height (cm), days to first flowering, days to first picking, number of fruits per plant, fruit length (cm), fruit girth (cm), fruit weight per plant (g), shelf life, moisture content (per cent) and benefit cost ratio as compared to farmers practice. It is suggested that instead of using only FYM, combination of FYM, Azotobacter, PSB, Rock phosphate as seed and soil treatment could be possible to reduce the productivity gap and has higher feasibility of the improved technology at the farmers field under existing agro climatic situations.
