An experiment field was laid out during summer season of 1998 and 1999 at Regional Research Station, Mainpuri, C.S. Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur. The experimental soil was sandy loam with poor fertility status. The thirty three genotypes of groundnut were tested. The main objective was to find out the suitable genotypes for summer season groundnut. Among the tested genotypes D4D8-10, D4D8-14 and ICGV 93468 gave superior pod yield by 35.08 q/ha, 34.34 q/ha and 32.62 q/ha. The genotypes ICGV-96360 (25.94 q/ha), ICGV-95337 (24.90 q/ha), ICGV-95299 (23.14 q/ha), ICGV-95319 (22.10 q/ha), D.G. 40 (21.04 q/ha) and ICGV-95290 (20.34 q/ha) also gave considerable pod yield. The other tested genotypes were failed to gave expected pod yield during summer season. The incidence of pest almost absent except pod borer. Pod borer damaged the pods up to 20% - 51.85% during summer season in lower pod yielder genotypes. The incidence of viral disease was not noted but fungal disease affected the crop by 1-2%.
