Abstract
The experiment conducted in the field of the Department of Farm Structures, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra, India for the winter season of 2016-2017.The initial condition of experimental site was fairly uniform and levelled. For conducting experiment, the field is subdivided into four plots of 48 m2 (i.e. 8m x 6m), where three shadenet house has been constructed and one as open field for treatment. Three shadenet houses are of different types namely Greenshadenet house (GSH), White shadenet house (WSH), Green and white strips shadenet house (GWSH), Open field (OF). The green and white strips shadenet house found more appropriate to obtain significantly maximum growth of okra as compared to the white shadenet house, green shadenet house and open field. The green and white strips shadenet house found more suitable to obtain suggestively maximum growth, yield parameters and fruit yield of okra The important yield contributing characters viz., number of fruits plant-I (31.25), fruit length (11.82 cm), and fruit weight per plant (481.44 g) were significantly higher under green and white strips shadenet house. The green and white strips shadenet house required minimum number of days (44.25) to first flower initiation. The fruit yield of okra was significantly higher under green and white strips shadenet house (237.55 q/ha). Based on benefit-cost ratio it is economically viable for the farmers to adopt green and white strips shadenet house with mulching for okra which shows B: C ratio as 1.98.
