Abstract

The field experiments were conducted at the Agro Techno Park (ATP), Universiti Malaysia Kelantan Jeli Campus, Malaysia. The main objective of this study is to determine the interaction between application of Bokash and MSG toward the growth performance, soil characteristics and yield production of okra plant. Three experiments were conducted by using completely randomized design (CRD). Experiments one and two have five different treatments of Bokashi and MSG respectively where each treatment will have three replications. Both experiment one and two were carried out at the same time by using polybag on controlled environment structure. Experiment three was factorial experiment between Bokashi and MSG application. There are six treatments with three replications where this experiment was conducted at open field. The parameter on soil characteristics, growth performances and yield production were observed and recorded. The growth performance of okra was increased when the rate of Bokashi uses were increased. The growth performance of okra only increase from T1 until T3 with rate of MSG 0 g/1 L of distilled water (29.25 ml/polybag), 3 g/1 L of distilled water (29.25 ml/polybag) and 6 g/1 L of distilled water (29.25 ml/polybag) respectively, however, the growth performance of okra decrease when applied more
than 6g of MSG. The best rate treatments applications of single Bokashi were T2, T3 and T4 with rate of Bokashi of 9.75 g/polybags, 19.5 g/polybags and 39 g/polybags
respectively, while best rate treatment application of single MSG were T2 and T3 with rate of MSG 3 g/1 L of distilled water and 6 g/1 L of distilled water respectively.
Available phosphorus (P) in soil directly could affect root elongation and growth performance of okra. Soil organic matter and soil carbon in soil were increased from
transplant to the production of yield and were differences among the treatments. Interaction between Bokashi and application of MSG gave positive feedback and improved the growth performance, soil characteristics and yield production of Okra plant.
