Abstract
An experiment was conducted Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh during Rabi 2023-2024. In which 14variaties with three replication each of coriander viz., T1;CIMPO S-33, T2:Imp KCOH-0801, T3:Pant Haritma, T4:GDLC-1, T5:Kashmiri, T6:Green Valley, T7:LS-800, T8: K.S Deshi, T9:Saurabh, T10: Heena (Bold), T11: Japany-47, T12: Cross (91), T13:Green King, T14:Local Ajmer, were evaluated among each other’s for quality,growth parameter and quantity patrametes.in which among all the varieties used in the experiment the best and most promising variety was found to be Japany-47 in all the aspects i.e plant height, (132.33cm) number of primary branches (17.6) number of umbels (25.19) Days to maturity (155.86) seed yield (15.35) test weight (17.04) ,cost benefit ratio 2;12.
Keywords: Coriander, plant height, number of primary branches, quality attributes, cost benefit ratio, seed yield
