FAISALABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 18th Mar, 2020 ) :The agriculture experts have advised the growers to start cultivation of okra (lady finger) immediately and complete it during March to get bumper yield.
A spokesman of the agriculture extension department said here Wednesday that Faisalabad, Kamalia, Sahiwal and Chishtian were among those major areas where okra was cultivated at maximum land space.
