Investigations were conducted to study the performance of different varieties of toria under Namsai conditions of Arunachal Pradesh at the Agricultural Research Farm of Arunachal University of Studies. Six varieties (TS-67, M-27, TS-36, TS-38, TS-46 and Jeuti) were evaluated in replicated randomized block design with four replications during November 2018 to February 2019. Observations recorded on growth and yield parameters indicated significant difference among the varieties. Maximum plant height was observed in TS-36 (108.05 cm) and minimum in M-27 (99.41 cm). Primary branches per plant was maximum in TS-36 (4.14) followed by TS-46 (3.03) and minimum in TS-67 (2.15). Maximum days to 50% flowering were observed in TS-38 (36.10), which was found to be at par with M-27 (37.35), and TS-36 (38.03). It was further observed that the variety TS-67 (42.96) took longest duration for 50% flowering, and it was at par with TS-46 (40.00). Minimum days to taken to days to maturity was recorded in TS-38 (82.13) at par with M-27 (83.28). Maximum crop duration was record in TS -67 (95.61) and was at par with Jeuti (94.55). Considering the growth and yield characters observed, the variety TS-36 (526.25 g plot-1) was found promising and can be recommended for Namsai region.
