Abstract

The existence of awareness on negative effect of using inorganic fertilizer to human health and environment
resulted the farmers shift to the use of organic fertilizer and focused on organic farming. Organic farming
involves the use of natural resources derived from agricultural waste as a source of fertilizer and pesticide.
An experiment was conducted to study the effect of different concentrations of indigenous microorganism on
growth and yield of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus). The results of the study indicated that inoculation with
5% concentrations of indigenous microorganism significantly enhanced the yield (10%), plant height
(12.4%), leaves number (15.8%), fresh weight (150%) and dry weight (69.2%) of okra. These properties
showed the benefits of indigenous microorganism in promoting soil fertility and then can increased growth
and yield of crop production.
