Abstract

Five glutinous upland rice varieties [white rice:  Num-ngern and Sew; black rice: Gam Pleuak Khao, Niaw Hawm and Niaw Dam Chaw Mai Pai 49 (control)] were tested in farmer fields of Songkhla and Satun provinces. The experiment was laid out with a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications in each province. The result showed that Niaw Hawm had the highest grain yield of 888 kg rai-1, followed by Niaw Dam Chaw Mai Pai 49 with 775 kg rai-1.  These two varieties had the other good traits too and they will be recommended to farmers.
