Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) is an important vegetable crop belonging to the family Malvaceae. Okra is grown throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world and in warmer parts of the temperate zone. India is the largest producer of okra globally, with a contribution of more than 72% (6 million tonnes) from an area of 0.5 million hectares (NHB, 2020). Okra has vast potential for earning foreign exchange as it has a significant share in fresh vegetable export (APEDA, 2020). Tender pods of okra are used as a delicious vegetable.
