Abstract
This research aimed to conduct a yield trial of commercial long cucumber cultivars in Nan province from January to March 2021. These data helped farmers select commercial long cucumber cultivars that were suitable for their growing areas. The experiment was conducted by using Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications. In this experiment, there were 20 commercial long cucumber cultivars including Green Bus, Premium, Big Green, Big Green Plus, Kiaw Phu Kao, Jumbo Green, Amata 3, Green Star, Lotus, Natalie 5, Kiaw Amata 2, Mac Green, Poseidon, Chokchai 5, Green Patra, Shokun 4x4, Supernova, Rungrawee, Paragon, Natalie 8, and, Jumbo Green. Jumbo Green, a popular cultivar in Nan province, was used as the check variety. The results showed that the 20 commercial long cucumber cultivars exhibited statistically significant difference in yield. Big Green Plus cultivar showed the highest yield, producing 7,377 kilograms per Rai. It also had high fruit quality, which was well-suited for cultivation in Nan Province.
