Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during February to june, 2019 at the Horticulture Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Insitute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology & Sciences, Prayagraj to study the “Effect of different levels of cycocel (CCC) on two different cultivars of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) under Prayagraj Agro climatic conditions”. The experiment was conducted in Factorial Randomized Block Design having 2 factors (Cultivers, Cycocel in different concentrations) with 6 various treatments (Control, Cycocel @ 200 ppm, 250 ppm, 300 ppm, 350 ppm and 400 ppm)in three replications. The allocation of treatments of the individual plots using random number in each replication. The plant height ranged from 90.58 cm to 122 cm. The minimum plant height (90.58 cm) was recorded in foliar spray cycocel at 400 ppm which was significantly over all other treatments. Based on the results obtained, the most effective concentration of cycocel for 50 per cent flowering (34.33 days), maximum number of pods per plant (30.83), maximum number of picking per plant (15.66) and maximum pod yield per hectare (132.32 qu.) was found superior at 400 ppm of cycocel as foliar spray. Among two cultivars, the most effective concentration of cycocel for number of nodes per plant (26.30), number of pickings per plant (14.23), maximum number of pods per plant (26.54), and maximum pod yield per hectare (107.7 qu.) was found superior in Pusa sawani cultivar of okra.
