A field experiment was conducted at the Ernest Bai Koroma University of Science and Technology, Makeni University College Campus Farm, Sierra Leone, during the June to September season 2019 to study the growth and yield components of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. cv. Corazon F1) as influenced by Nitrogen and Organic fertilizer mix. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications and five treatments. The treatments consisted of  ‘no fertilizer’ applied, 10tha-1 Public garbage matter (PGM), 10tha-1 Guinea grass green manure (GGGM), 200kgha-1 NPK 19:19:19 fertilizer, and 200kgha-1 NPK 19:19:19 fertilizer + 10tha-1 GGGM. There were significant differences between treatments 200kgha-1 NPK 19:19:19: fertilizer + 10tha-1 GGGM, 10tha-1 PGM and ‘no fertilizer’ applied in terms of plant height, stem girth, fresh fruit weight per plot and fresh fruit yield per plot. Among the treatments, highest plant height (39.557 cm), largest stem diameter (4.3000 cm2), largest number of leaves (8.800) and longest leaf (31.1000cm) were recorded in 200kgha-1 NPK 19:19:19 fertilizer + 10tha-1 GGGM as the growth traits. The heaviest fresh fruits per plot, (206.11g) and heaviest fruit yield per plot (2.748t/ha) as yield traits, were also observed with application of 200kgha-1 NPK 19:19:19 fertilizer + 10tha-1 GGGM. Therefore, it was shown that the integrated use of the green manure and nitrogen fertilizer can be adopted by farmers in the study area to maximize okra yield.
