Abstract

Field experiment was undertaken during the year 2019-2020 to assess the agronomic performance of different banana cultivars and to select the cultivar ideally suited to tarai regions of Uttarakhand. The study was performed with seven different banana cultivars namely Basrai Dwarf, Grande Naine (G-9), Poovan, Ney Poovan, Monthan, Red Banana and Nendran. Among these, Grande Naine (G-9) proved significantly superior, with regard to yield characters and agronomic attributes closely followed by Basrai Dwarf. This result is also supported by correlation study among the different attributes which showed that the bunch weight decreases if vegetative growth is more and crop duration is longer.
