The present study was initiated to evaluate the factors influencing the profitability of the crop of okra in soil and climatic conditions and socio-economic Lubumbashi. The culture was installed in the actual conditions at the farm Kasapa the University of Lubumbashi on an area of one hectare. The observed agronomic parameters include the rate of emergence and survival, height of the plans, the number of harvests and yield. Then the flow of products (fruits) was carried out in the different markets of the city of Lubumbashi. The results revealed that the average survival rate is 91%, a decrease of 4% compared to the emergence rate originally recorded. The yield obtained (3.3 tonnes / ha) would be explained by several factors, the most limiting would phytosanitary restrictions, transportation costs and low producer prices. In the soil and climate and socio-economic context of Lubumbashi, these factors significantly limit the financial profitability (9% is a profit of $ 9 for $ 100 invested over a period of four months) culture okra. Thus, improved profitability of this culture would pass through minimizing transportation costs and reducing the gap between market prices and those for the production and control of the technical route.
