Abstract

A field experiment was carried out to evaluate the performance of 12 new entries of okra during 2019 and 2020
at the Research Farm of Vegetable Science, CCS HAU, Hisar. In the present evaluation, during 2019, out of 12
tested entries of okra, 19/OKYVRES-5 recorded the maximum fruit yield (116.4 q/ha) with no incidence of YVMV
(0.0%) and f OELCV (0.0%), whereas the minimum yield (77.2 q/ha) with higher percentage of YVMV (13.4%) and
OELCV (22.1%) was found in 19/OKYVRES-7. Likewise, during 2020, twelve entries of Okra were again tested, the
maximum fruit yield (113.3 q/ha) with minimum incidence of YVMV (0.2%) and no incidence of OELCV (0.0%) was
recorded in 9/OKYVRES-5, whereas the minimum yield (72.4 q/ha) with maximum percentage of YVMV (19.6%) and
OELCV (25.4%) was found in 19/OKYVRES-7. It may concluded that the newly developed variety 19/OKYVRES-5
of okra has average fruit weight 114.85 q/ha and also reflected resistant against YVMV and OELCV, therefore, may
recommended for commercial cultivation after testing it over the locations and years.
