Abstract: A field experiment was conducted of Agricultural Research Station, Annigeri, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad during rabi season of 2015-16, under rainfed conditions. The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design and replicated thrice. Main plots consists of three date of sowing – D1: 1-10-2015, D2: 15-10-2015, D3: 31-10-2015 and three sub plots, genotypes, G1-A1, G2-NARI-6 and G3-NARI-57. Among the different date of sowing significantly higher seed yield (946 kg ha-1) was observed in 1st date of sowing as compared to third date of sowing (783 kg ha-1). Among the genotype, Annigeri-1, recorded significantly higher yield (1033 kg ha-1) as compared to other two genotypes NARI-6 (799 kg ha-1) and NARI-57 (825 kg ha-1), with respect to oil content and oil yield no significantly difference were observed with different date of sowing. Among the genotypes, NARI-6, recorded significantly higher oil content (34.41%) as compared to Annigeri-1 (28.83%).
