Abstract
Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is one of the important root vegetable crops. Many farmers of S.A.S. Nagar (Mohali) district of Punjab grow carrot crop during Rabi season and fetch good price. Hence, the present study was carried out to evaluate three varieties of carrot in farmer's field for root yield and its component traits at eight farmers’ field during Rabi 2016–17. It was revealed that traditional variety available with the farmer T1(Farmer's practice) gave root yield of 371.25 q/ha yield whereas T2(Punjab Black Beauty) gave 425 q/ha and T3(Punjab Carrot Red) gave 500 q/ha. The data of the trial revealed that T3 gave maximum yield of carrot 500(q/ha) along with the maximum B: C ratio (3.75: 1).
