The present study aimed to analyze the effect of foliar application of panchagavya and cow urine on vegetative growth parameters of okra. This experiment was conducted at the Horticulture Research Farm, Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Campus Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, from 2019 to 20. Two bio enhancers, namely Panchagavya and Cow urine, were used as foliar applications on okra in different concentrations. Nine treatments were used for the experimental study. The experiment plot was laid out in a randomized block design and each treatment was replicated three times. The results revealed that foliar application of Panchagavya and Cow urine significantly enhanced the vegetative growth of okra. Among all the treatments, foliar application of 4% Panchagavya on okra at 30, 60 and 75 days after sowing gave maximum plant height (101.85 cm), number of branches (4.03), number of leaves (31.61), fresh weight of the plant (210.76 g), dry weight of plant (75.16 g), and stem diameter (2.50 cm) as compared to all other treatments. The experimental findings also revealed that the foliar application of Panchagavya is more beneficial as compared to Cow urine for enhancing the vegetative growth of okra. However, minimum vegetative growth was recorded under control (distilled water) treatment.
