Abstract
en fodder tcosintc types were evaluated in a randomized block design with three replications during Kharif 1995 at the College of Agriculture, Vellayani under AICRP on Forage Crops. Genetic analysis of fodder yield and its components revealed that plant height recorded high genotypic coefficient oi' variation, herilability and genetic advance indicating that selection based on this character will result in improving fodder yield. Highest genotypic correlation was observed between green fodder yield and dry matter yield. Leaf number per plant and plant stand recorded highest positive genotypic correlation with green fodder yield
