Abstract: The major constraint for the low productivity of okra in the Muzaffarpur District of Bihar is the non-adoption of a recommended package of practices and an improved high-yielding variety. To replace this old technology, high-yielding okra var. ‘Kashi Kranti’ was conducted in the field of 20 farmers by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Turki Muzaffarpur RPCAU Pusa, Samastipur during the pre-kharif seasons of 2019 and 2020. The demonstration used the recommended package of practices. An average yield of okra in ranged from 135.70 to 140.0 q/ha, whereas in local practices 80.80 and 85.88 q/ha during the year 2019 and 2020, respectively. A 67.94% (year 2019) and 63.46% (year 2020) increase in yield was recorded compared to local farmers. Similarly, the extension gap was also noticed at 54.90 and 55.00 q/ha during 2019 and 2020, respectively.
