Eleven banana genotypes viz. Champa (AAB), Budubale (PisangAwak), BCB-3 (AAB), H-531 (Poovan x PisangLilin), BCB-1 (AAB), KBS-8 (Dwarf Cavendish-AAA), Bantal (ABB), BCB-2 (ABB), KovurBontha (Monthan-ABB), ManjeriNendran II (AAB) and NRCB-8 (ABB) were evaluated for the yield and yield attributing parameters like the bunch weight (kg), bunch length (cm), bunch girth (cm), number of hands, total number of fingers, finger length (cm), finger circumference (cm), finger weight (g). From the results it was found that, among the dessert types the performance of BCB-3 was better as compared to other genotypes with regards to bunch weight (14.77 kg), number of hands (12.87), number of fingers (148.91), finger length (21.07cm), finger weight (101.21g) and yield (31.7 t/ha). The genotype BCB-2 among the culinary types was found to be superior as compared to other genotypes with regards to bunch weight (16.52 kg), number of hands (12.80), number of fingers (125.05), finger length (19.53cm), finger weight (137.48 g) and yield (35.18t/ha).
