A field experiment was conducted to evaluate popular rice varieties viz., NDR 97, Sushk Samrat, NDR 359, Sarjoo-52, Sahbhagidhan, Arize 6444 and IR 64 in Randomized Block Design with three replications in aerobic rice production system in eastern Uttar Pradesh. Among the rice varieties Sarjoo-52 was found most promising and produced highest grain yield of 5.10 t ha-1 in aerobic soil of eastern Uttar Pradesh. The next best variety was Arize 6444 (4.75 t ha-1) and it was at par with NDR 359 (4.23 t ha-1) and IR 64 (3.58 t ha-1).
