Abstract
Studies on hybridization and evaluation are under progress at the Cashew Research Station, Bapatla.
F1 hybrid seedlings have been under evaluation since 1997. Performance of each block is evaluated for nut yields.
Among the F1 progenies of 1997 H-36 had the highest cumulative nut yield of 68.30 kg/tree and in 1998 hybrids H-94 had the highest yield of 21.3 kg tree-1. Among 48 F1s of 1999, highest yield was recorded with H-132 which had 16.65 kg tree-1. In the hybrid progenies of 2000 and 2001 highest cumulative yields were recorded with H-216 and H-254 which yielded 23.7 and 22.55 kg tree-1 respectively.
