The present investigation entitled, “Effect of growth regulator on growth, yield and seed quality parameters of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.):cv. Utkal Gaurav.” Was carried at Central Farm, Breeder Seed Production Unit, College of Agriculture, OUAT during Kharif season of 2015-2016. Foliar spray two growth regulator like GA3, NAA were spray at different concentration and 20th, 40th, 60th day after sowing. Result revealed foliar spray is significantly positive impact on growth regulator in growth parameters i.e. T4 (NAA 50 @ ppm at 20days spray) was first flowering (31.47 days), 50 per cent flowering (40.40 days), first harvesting (37.02 days), minimum days to fruit maturity (66.02 days), yield parameter T5 (NAA 50 ppm at 40 days spray) maximum fruit weight (16.47 gm.), dry fruit weight (5.61 gm.), fruit length (16.58 cm), fruit girth (6.46 cm), fruit yield per plot (4.83 kg), yield per hectare (96.63 q/ha.), and seed quality parameter T6 (NAA @ 50 ppm spray at 60 DAS) recorded maximum root length (9.40cm), fresh seedling weight (6.43 g), dry seedling weight (26.77mg) and Vigour index type-I & II (2210.29 and 22.58) and as compare to other treatment and T9 (control).
