The present investigation was carried out during Kharif and Rabi seasons of the year 2018-19 under State Plan Project, DARP, RVSKVV, College of Agriculture, Indore under dryland condition to evaluate the mean performance of the Amaranthus accessions under different seasonal conditions, providing insights into their adaptability and yield potential for leaf production. The present study material consisted of nine genotypes of Amaranthus spp. including three released varieties and six local accessions and evaluated in dryland condition. Farmyard manure (FYM) was applied at a rate of 10 t/ha, along with a basal dose of NPK fertilizers (30 kg N, 20 kg P, 10 kg K/ha.). Observations were recorded on various yield and its related traits. In leafy Amaranthus, overall, CO-1 KERALA AMA 17-18-102 were among the best-performing genotype in terms of growth, vigour and yield in both seasons.
