Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sowing methods on varietal performance and yield of brassica under agro-climatic conditions of Peshawar valley. The experiment was conducted at Pakistan Academy for Rural Development (PARD), Peshawar in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Three brassica varieties (Zahoor, Abaseen-95 and advance line) and three sowing methods (Ridge, Line, and Broadcast) were studied. Statistical analysis of the data revealed that varieties had a significant effect on days to emergence, emergence m-2, and days to flowering, number of branches plant-1, number of pods plant-1, and number of leaves plant-1, leaf area, plant height, and seed pod-1. The increases in yield components were recorded for Zahoor variety as compared with abseen-95 and advance line.
