The field experiment was conducted during season of 2017-2018 at Agricultural Research Farm, School of Agriculture, Suresh Gyan Vihar University, Jagatpura, Jaipur. Study entitled “Relative performance of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars under saline water condition” under Randomized Block Design. To evaluate ten barley cultivars namely RD 2715, RD 2035, RD 2592, RD 2849, RD 2860, RD 2552, RD 2668, RD 2097, BH 946, RD 2052 were grown under field condition for checking individual performance under saline water condition. The results revealed that among ten cultivars RD 2552 cultivar significantly recorded maximum plant population, growth parameters like plant height (cm), 50 per cent heading and 50 per cent maturity and yield parameters like number of tillers plant-1, number of spike meter-1 row length, length of spike, number of grain spike-1, test weight (gm) and ultimately increased grain as well as straw yield of barley.
