Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) is one of the oldest domesticated grain legumes which
is grown widely throughout the Indian subcontinent. Consequently, lentils has have evolved
over a broad range of growing environments globally, which infers broad genetic variation
and yield. The unpredictable weather patterns existing in the Indo-gangetic Plains of North
Western Bihar, India has affected pulse crop production in general and Lentil in particular.
Therefore field evaluation of promising lentil genotypes were carried out with identifying
superior adaptability and yield stability as a strategy for pulse farming. In changing, climate
scenarios, eight genotypes of lentil were tested in Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Bhagwanpur Hat,
Siwan, Bihar (India) during Rabi, 2022-23 for its suitability in the region. SVT/Lentil (2022-
23)/6 lentil variety recorded superiority of yield (1200 kg ha -1 ) and yield attributing characters
such as plant height (36.57 cm), number of branches per plant (24), and days to 50 %
flowering (54 days). Therefore, SVT/Lentil (2022-23)/6 may be suitable genotype for Indo-
gangetic plains of North-Western Bihar region of India in terms of yield which was followed
by SVT/Lentil (2022-23)/5 variety which recorded yield if 1050 kg ha -1 . Multi location
testing will help in promoting these varieties for seed production and large scale cultivation
by farmers. The unpredictable weather patterns existing in the Indo-gangetic Plains of North Western
Bihar, India has affected pulse crop production in general and Lentil in particular. Therefore
field evaluation of promising lentil genotypes were carried out with identifying superior
adaptability and yield stability as a strategy for pulse farming.
