The current study was conducted in 2021-2022 at CRC Farm, Department of Horticulture, ITM University Gwalior with Randomized Block Design along with 3 replications comprised of 12 treatments using organic manures likes FYM, vermi-compost and poultry manure, inorganic fertilizers and bio-fertilizers such as Azotobacter and PSB were applied in okra variety Arka Anamika. Integrated nutrient management (INM) is one of the most important methods to reduce input of chemical fertilizers and organic manure such as animal manures, crop residue and green manure neutralized soil acidity and supplied essential micronutrients. The different treatment combinations of organic manures like FYM, vermi-compost and poultry manure, inorganic fertilizers and bio-fertilizers like Azotobacter and PSB were significantly influenced the growth, yield and economic parameters of okra at different stages. The result revealed that the maximum growth, yield parameters and economic were observed in the treatment T7 (100 % RDF + Poultry manure + Azotobacter + PSB) whereas minimum growth, yield parameters and economic were recorded in treatment T1 (100 % RDF-100 Kg N, 60 Kg P2O5 and 50 Kg K2O), respectively.

Result concluded that the different treatment combinations of organic like FYM, vermi-compost and poultry manure, inorganic and bio-fertilizers like Azotobacter and PSB were significantly influenced the growth, yield and economic parameters of okra at different stages. Furthermore, they reviewed the maximum growth, yield parameters and economic were noticed in the treatment T7 (100 % RDF + Poultry manure + Azotobacter + PSB) and statistically found significant than the rest of the treatments, whereas the lowest were noted in treatment T1 (100 % RDF). On the basis of the result obtained after completion of present investigation we can also say that using integrated nutrient management not only increase the production but reduce the consumption of chemical fertilizers and may also improve the soil health. But the further research work is needed to confirm the findings of the present investigation.
