India is the leading country for growing chilli with highest area, production, consumption and also for export. Andhra Pradesh State is occupied first position in area and production in India. Due to high fluctuations in market price and high cost of cultivation coupled with lower yields are leading to frequent low profits and even loss to the farmer. Targeting high profits, a new chilli variety, LCA-625 was assessed in the farmer’s field through On Farm’ testing trials for three consecutive years from 2017-18 to 2019-20 during rabi in Visakhapatnam district of Andhra Pradesh State, India. Higher yields were recorded by longer fruit length and high dry weight of fruit and also yield improvement of 9.57 per cent with LCA-625 over control (VNR-577). The dry fruit yield with LCA-625 (4776 kg/ha) was higher against control (VNR-577), 4500kg/ha) with CBR of 1:2.03 compared to control (1:1.71)
