As the world’s population keeps increasing, the assembly of new high yielding rice variety is one of the solutions in answering food security problem. Research was carried out in July 2019 to February 2020 at Wirowongso village, Jember and Seed Technology Laboratory, Politeknik Negeri Jember. This research used Randomized Block Design with nine treatments of eight rice lines and a comparative variety, with three repetitions each. The treatments were G1 (UDS 001), G2 (UDS 002), G3 (UDS 003), G4 (UDS 004), G5 (UDS 005), G6 (UDS 006), G7 (UDS 007), G8 (UDS 008) and G9 (Ciherang). The data was analysed using ANOVA and LSD at 5%. The results showed that ‘UDS 008’, ‘UDS 001’ and ‘UDS 005’ were superior to ‘Ciherang’ in plant height, panicle length, number of panicle grain, number of productive tillers and number of pithed grain. In terms of production and yield potential per hectare, ‘UDS 001’, ‘UDS 002’, ‘UDS 003’, ‘UDS 004’, ‘UDS 005’, ‘UDS 006’, and ‘UDS 008’ were superior to ‘Ciherang’. ‘UDS 001’ gave the highest production of 10.36 ton/ha, while ‘UDS 005’ had the highest potential of 11.22 ton/ha. For the germination rate, ‘UDS 006’ was the highest by 81.17%.
