The research on varietal screening for a specific location has done since long time. But varietal screening of Indian mustard at Terai region has meagre hitherto. Therefore, an experiment was performed to evaluate the performance of different mustard varieties in Regional Research Sub-Station (Terai Zone), Uttar Banga Krishi Viswavidyalaya in the year 2015-16 during Rabi season (Dec.- Feb.). The study was purposively done to evaluate five mustard varieties viz., T-9, Piloo, NC-1, PS-28 and B-9 in Terai Zone of West Bengal with respect to yield attributing characters. In brevity it was found that Pilloo is most suitable cultivar for studied areas.
