Abstract

The field experiment was carried out at Regional Research and Technology Transfer Station (OUAT), Semiliguda of Koraput district in acidic sandy loam soils under Eastern Ghat High Land zone of Odisha during kharif 2019 to evaluate the performance of released hybrid varieties of pearl millet under rainfed condition. The experiment consisted of sixteen released hybrid varieties of pearl millet viz. HHB 229, AHB 1200, 86 M 01, NBH 5767, Pratap (MH 1662), NBH 4903, NBH 5061, 86 M 86, Kaveri Super Boss, 86 M 64, GHB 558, Dhanshakti, ICMV 221, Pusa Comp 612, ABV 04 and ICMV 155. It was laid out in randomized block design with three replications. The results revealed that Kaveri Super Boss recorded highest grain yield of 4667 kg/ha among all the varieties/ hybrids evaluated and it was statistically at par with the yield of NBH 4903 (4536 kg/ha) and NBH 5061 (4195 kg/ha). The hybrid ICMV 155 recorded the lowest grain yield of 567 kg/ha under rainfed condition.
