I'm doing a design project on aquaponics systems and want to be able to match the nutrient requirements for okra and basil with the amount of waste the fish produce.

I'm having a hard time finding what the nutrient requirements are for okra.

Can someone help me out? Point me in the right direction for some reference material.

Hi Keith,

Dr James Rakocy at UVI grew okra in a raft system. He should be able to direct you to nutrient data for that plant. Sorry, I don't have an email address.......just try the Contact Us at UVI and see if they can connect you.
