An Experiment on black cumin was conducted during November to April 2021-2022, in Horticulture Research Field, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology & Sciences Prayagraj (U.P.) India. The results of the investigation, regarding the performance of the 7 variety of black cumin i.e. Ajmer Nigella-1, Ajmer Nigella-20, Rajendra Shyama, Nigella Sativa ,Local variety -1, Azad Kolonji, Local variety- 2 obtained from different sources to find out the best performance in terms of growth and yield in prayagraj agro climatic conditions. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design, were each variety replicated thrice the results from the present investigation concluded that black cumin genotype Azad Kolonji was recorded with maximum number of flowers / plant (77.87), number of umbels / plant (57.27), Seed / umbel (95.73), Seed yield t/ha (2.48) and with maximum gross return, net return and Cost Benefit Ratio of (4.12) which was found to be more productive and economically viable.
