Introduction: Tomato is one of the most popular fruit vegetable. It ranks second in importance to potato. Like any other vegetable tomatoes also come in different hues and varieties. Selection of the variety for cultivation must be based on the environmental conditions of the site of cultivation, insect and pest incidences in the area, the market and demand, culture in the surrounding area, etc. There are 700 varieties of tomatoes cultivated throughout the world. Cultivars and hybrids are being developed in public and private sector. The cultivars are grouped under determinate, indeterminate and intermediate.

Considerations for Selection of Cultivars: For large scale production the tomato variety should possess the following attributes: Good customer demand. Wider adaptability. Resistance to pest, insect prevailing in the area. Better transportation qualities. Processing fruits should be easy. High productivity per unit areas. Cultivation practices should be economical. Higher returns for farmers. Quality should be good enough for export.

Types of Cultivars (a)Determinate cultivars (Bush type): Roma(EC-13513), Rupali, MTH-15,Arka Ashish (IIHR 674 SBSB), Arka Alok (BWR-5) Pusa early Dwarf, Sel 7, Hissar lalit. (b)Indeterminate cultivars (required staking): Pusa Uphar, Solan Gola, Sioux, Marglobe, Naveen, Solan Bajr, Pusa Ruby, Dhanashree. (c)Semi determinate(Vigorous bush type): Arka Aurab, Arka Ahuti, Arka Abha, Pant T3, Arka Shreshta, Arka Abhijeet, Arka Ashish. Sutton gram prolific, Sutton gram Sweet cluster, Sutton gram wonders, Sutton gram sweet heart, Lerica.

Types of Cultivars (d)Resistance to root knot nematode: Hisar Lalit. (e)Cultivars suitable for processing: Punjab Chhuara, Arka Ashish, Bhagyshree. (f)Resistance to bacterial wilt: Shakti, Arka Abha (g) Hybrids: At present there are about 34% of total tomato growing area are estimated to have been covered by F1 hybrids.

Types of Cultivars(Contd.) (h)Resistance to bacterial wilt: Shakti, Arka abha (i)Resistance to root knot nematode: Hisar Lalit (j)Cultivars suitable for processing: Punjab Chhuara, Arka Ashish, Bhagyshree.

Conclusion: Availability of space affects the selection cultivar. Determinate varieties should be cultivated where space is limited as the fruits ripen within two to three weeks time. Whereas for large available space and longer available time indeterminate varieties must be selected. The plant must be supported depending upon the variety. It is beneficial to choose determinate varieties of tomatoes. The plants can do well without any support. The fruits ripen within the span of two to three weeks. Thus they can be brought to market earlier and fetch a better market price.
