Effect of row spacing on growth and yield of okra was studied on clay loam soil at Latif Experimental Farm, Sindh Agriculture-University, Tandojam. The results exhibited that all the yield components and yields were significantly affected by plant spacings. Number of pods and pod yield per plant also revealed significant response to row spacing only. Results also demonstrated that plants grown at 30 cm plant spacing with 50 cm row spacing produced taller plants and maximum branches. Maximum pods and pod yield/plant were produced by 50 cm inter spacing with 60 cm intra spacing. But higher pod yield per unit area was recorded under lowest inter and intra row spacing i.e. 30 cm plant to plant and 50 cm row to row spacing under agro- climatic conditions of Tandojam.
