It is resistant to yellow mosaic virus disease, suitable for kharif season. The average grain yield is about 1000kg per ha. It has wider adaptability to varied climatic zones such as South, Central and North Himalayan zones of India. Based on the yield superiority over the check varieties, VB-3 has been identified by the Central varietal identification Committee for release in 1995.
