Abstract

A new variety of paddy, PY.5 (Aravindar) has been released by the Government of Pondicherry from the Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Pondicherry for general cultivation. It was found to be a high yielder with good milling and cooking qualities. It recorded a mean grain yield of 6.3 tha with an increase of 12.5 and 43.4 per cent over IR.50 and TKM.9 respectively. It is semidwarf (90-95 cm) with long slender grain and matures in 100 to 105 days. It is moderately resistant to brown plant hopper and rice tungro virus with better storage potential.
