Abstract: Comparison test of 14 varieties of Okra in the field revealed that yield of dry matter of Okra leaf, yield of lutein and β-carotene in Okra leaf represent obvious statistical discrepancy. 004-2 gave the highest yields of leaf dry matter, it reached to 4948 kg/hm2; 024-3 gave the highest yields of lutein in Okra leaf, it reached to 9261.7 g/hm2 in ideal; 018-1 gave the highest yields ofβ-carotene in Okra leaf, it reached to 32740.0g/hm2 in ideal. Being given a general consideration from the above three aspects, it could be found that 018-1, 024-3 and 021 were adapted to the high yield planting.
