Abstract
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance of local aromatic rice cultivars viz. Kalijira, Khaskani, Kachra, Raniselute, Morichsail and Badshabhog. The rice cultivars varied considerably in terms of crop growth characteristics as well as yield and yield contributing characters. The highest plant height (116.00 cm) was found in the variety Morichsail and the lowest in the variety Khaskani. Number of filled grains panicle -1 was found highest (100) with the variety Khaskani and the lowest was recorded in the variety Raniselute. Raniselute produced the highest 1000-grain weight (32.09 g) and the lowest (13.32 g) was recorded from the variety Kalijira. The variety Morichsail produced the highest grain yield (2.53 t ha -1 ) followed by Kachra (2.41 t ha -1 ), Raniselute (2.13 t ha -1 ) and Badshabhog (2.09 t ha -1 ) and the lowest grain yield (1.80 t ha - 1 ) was obtained from Kalijira. The results of various characters studied in the experiments suggested that some
