A farmer’s participatory field trial was conducted in Rabi 2016-17 on farmers’ field at Bagoi village in Kujanga block of Jagatsinghpur district in East and South east coastal plain of Odisha, to evaluate the performance, growth parameters and yield of different high yielding varieties of green gram. The treatments were consisted of four different high yielding varieties of green gram and one local green gram variety i.e., T1: TARM-1, T2: IPM-02-14, T3: Pusa Vishal, T4: SML-668, and T5: Local Jhain Mung (check) were replicated five times in randomized block design. Four different high yielding green gram varieties and one local variety (Jhain Mung) were grown with recommended package and practices. The crops were sown during January second week and harvested during first week of April. Observations on growth and yield parameters were taken and economic analysis was done. The final crop yield was recorded and the gross return (Rs ha-1) were calculated on the basis of prevailing market price. The results from the trial have conclusively proved that the higher yield of Pusa Vishal (11.18q/ha) followed by IPM 02-14 (8.12q/ha) with recommended agronomical package and practices. Thus the existing local variety may be replaced with high yielding variety Pusa Viushal and IPM 02-14 because of higher productivity and net income. Green gram variety Pusa Vishal and IPM-021-14 were found to be most suitable and promising varieties since these two varieties had performed well to the existing farming situation and also it had been appreciated by the farmers.
