This study entitled "EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT ANIMAL MANURES ON THE GROWTH AND YIELD PERFORMANCE OF OKRA PLANTS (Hibiscus esculentus)" was conducted at the garden of Mrs. Caridad S. Merced at Cavite State University from October- December 2006 with the following objectives: (1) to determine the effects of different animal manures on the growth and yield performance of okra plants, (2) to determine which animal manure will produce the best growth and yield performance of okra plants, (3) to determine the ideal medium which will give the best growth and yield performance of okra.
The Latin Square Design was used in the study with four treatments and three replications. The treatments were: TO- control (pure garden soil), T1- (50% soil plus 50% cow manure), T2- (50% soil plus 50% goat manure) and 13- (50% soil plus 50% chicken manure).
The plants produced flowers at sixty days after planting and were completed sixty-five days. The plants in treatment 3 produced more fruits, bigger leaves and had well-developed stems among the four treatments. However, after two weeks, the plots were flooded, and the plants were destroyed due to the typhoon. For the continuing results, the researchers thought of constructing nursery boxes to make their trials safer and free from floods brought by the typhoon.
Based on the findings, it is more effective to used different animal manures, especially the application of chicken and goat manure. It is strongly recommended the use of chicken and goat manure in growing plants especially to farmers. Further studies should be conducted to know why plants grown in pure garden soil and cow manure did not yield more fruits, and the experiment should be conducted earlier in preparation to the onset of the rainy season.
The results revealed that the different animal manures had a significant effect on the growth and yield performance of okra plants, and the null hypothesis was rejected.
