Four ecotypes of Medicago sativa two ecotypes of Festuca elatior Var arundinacea and one ecotypes of Phalaris tuberose were sown at Jaba in November 1977 under barani conditions in a randomized complete block design replicated six times. In October, 1978, Festuca elatior (Kenwell) yielded significantly more air-dried forage (2139 kg/ ha) while in May, 1979 Medicago sativa (Viuta) produced significantly more air-dried forage (1516 kg/ha) as compared with other forage species. The two ecotypes of Festuca elatior did not show any significant difference in the air-dried forage production between themselves. Phalaris tuberose produced less air dried forage in both the harvesting seasons. None of the ecotypes / species showed any significant difference in the number of established plants among themselves except Festuca elatior (Kenwell) which had significantly more number of established plants as compared with other ecotypes/species.
