A field experiment entitled “Evaluation of Rice Varieties for Organic Farming” was undertaken at Krishi Nagar Farm, JNKVV, Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh) during Kharif season of 2015. The experiment was laid out in “randomized block design” with three replications. Twelve varieties of rice viz. T1 (PS 5), T2 (Sahyadri), T3 (PS 4), T4 (BVD 109), T5 (JR 201), T6 (Danteshwari), T7 (Madhumati), T8 (IR 36), T9 (MTU 1010), T10 (IR 64), T11 (Pusa Basmati 1) and T12 (PS 3) were grown under organic nutrient management (A uniform dose of organic manures i.e. 1/3rd N through each of FYM, Neemcake and Vermicompost and rock phosphate were applied to all varieties).Among the varieties both grain and straw yields significantly differed. Variety PS 3 excelled to all for grain yields (3525 kg/ha) and Variety BVD 109 was the lowest yielder (2563 kg/ha). As regards straw yields, again PS 3 was top yielder (5336 kg/ha) while IR 36 was the lowest yielder (4676 kg/ha). The economic viability among all the treatment the cost of cultivation was different for scented and non-scented varieties because of higher price of scented seeds. While considering the gross monitoring return(GMR), variety PS 3 fetched the highest (Rs111086/ha) value due to higher seed and stover yields. The gross monitoring return(GMR) was minimum with BVD 109 (Rs 56499/ha). As regards the net monitoring return(NMR), variety PS 3 fetched the highest value (Rs 67168/ha) this treatment was markedly higher than rest of the treatments. The profitability was maximum with PS 3 (2.53).
