Twelve rice genotypes in cluding standard check (sab itri) were planted in irrigated areas of
Cham bas of Tanahun during 20 11-12 .. The genotypes were evaluated in RCBD in three
replications and were observed for days to 50% head in g, plant height, no of tillers/ hill, grain
y ield and straw yie ld. Data of these different parameters were analyzed separate ly and
combined over years for all the genotypes. Highly significant differences were observed for
grain y ield, days to heading and plant height among the genotypes. However, non significant
differences were observed for straw y ield and no of effective tillers per hill . Among the
tested genotypes, IR 804 11-B-28-4 produced the highest gra in yield (6500 kg/ha) fo llowed by
IR 79253-55-1-4-6(5750 kg/ha), IR 76479-48-3-1 (5733.3 kg/ha) and IR 79216-141 -1-3-3
(5466.6 kg/ha) compared to standard check Sabitri(5250kg/ha). rt was observed that these
promising genotypes can perform better in the river basins of western hills of Nepal and
should be verified to the farmers' field in the coming years .
