Okra is important for its nutritional value, economic significance, and adaptability to diverse farming systems. However, low soil fertility in tropical soils results in poor okra yields, and using poultry manure raises environmental concerns. Therefore, exploring poultry manure extract (PME) could be a sustainable practice to ensure good yield. The objective was to determine okra's response to PME. The experiment, conducted in 2022 and 2023 used a 2×6 factorial design involving two okra varieties (NHAe47-4 and LD88) and six fertilizer treatments [0 (Control: T1), 840 L/ha (T2), 1680 L/ha (T3), and 2520 L/ha PME (T4), 60 kg N/ha poultry manure (T5), and 60 kg N/ha NPK 15:15:15 (T6)]. A randomized complete block design with six replicates and plant spacing of 50×30 cm was used. Growth and yield data were analyzed using ANOVA. Results indicated NHAe47-4 had significantly lower height, pod length, and fruit yield, but higher stem diameter, number of leaves, and leaf area, compared to LD88. Applying T4 treatment significantly increased the growth and yield of okra compared to lower levels and control, although T5 and T6 were better. In 2022 and 2023, fresh shoot weights were highest in NHAe47-4×T6 (5151.07 and 5080.56 kg/ha), and fruit yields in LD88×T6 (45408.34 and 45617.60 kg/ha), while NHAe47-4×T4 had 3554.17 and 3527.78 kg/ha, and LD88×T4 had 27269.91 and 27327.78 kg/ha, respectively. Though T6 and T5 optimize the vegetative and reproductive performances in okra, applying 2520 L/ha of poultry manure extract was considered an environmentally friendly alternative for sustainable LD88 okra production.
