Application of organic composts can improve soil quality as well as sustainability of agricultural production. This research concerns with the effects of EM-Bokashi compost and vegetable wastes compost on the growth of lady's finger plant. The experiment comprised two treatments viz., EM-Bokashi compost (soil:prepared EM-Bokashi = 1:1) and vegetable wastes compost (soil:organic matter such as tea and vegetables wastes = 1:1). Increase in the contents of moisture, organic carbon, humus and phosphorus were noticed in EM-Bokashi compost when compared to vegetable wastes compost. The contents of nitrogen and potassium were not much different from each other. The effects of EM-Bokashi compost and vegetable wastes compost on the growth of lady's finger plant such as plant height, circumferences of stem, number of fruits and leaves per plant were measured after 15 days, 30 days and 45 days. Plant height, stem circumference, number of leaves, yield and fruit size of lady’s finger plant on EM-Bokashi compost was larger than vegetable wastes compost because EM-Bokashi compost has high organic carbon, humus and available phosphorus contents. In fact, the prepared EM-Bokashi compost can be used as a good source of nutrients for the plant growth and can reduce the farmer's budget for crop fertilization.
