Preliminary yield trials (PYTs) are one of the steps in cultivar development of cassava by testing, characterizing, and selecting the promising clones. The objective of this study was to evaluate the yield of cassava clones in the University of Lampung Experimental Station, Natar, South Lampung. This study consisted of two experiments, Experiment A and B. A completely randomized block design was used for both experiments. Experiment A and B evaluated 17 clones with two replications and 13 clones with three replications respectively. Cultivar UJ 5 was used as the standard for both experiments. BL 100 produced starch weight per plant (0.21 kg), higher than the standard UJ 5 (0.11 kg). Nibung produced starch weight per plant (0.50 kg), higher than the standard UJ5 clone (0.37 kg). BL 100, Kasetsart Ungu, UJ 3 Kc and BL-01 were the promising clones selected from Experiment A. Nibung, Randu, Korem Gatam, and MU 111 were the promising clones selected from Experiment B.
