Six lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) lines were evaluated for yield and related characters, in comparison to the check "Selaim", in the 1990-93 seasons, under farmers' conditions in Rubatab and Wad Hamid area in northern Sudan and Jebel Marra area in western Sudan. The lines showed significant differences in grain yield at Wad Hamid and Jebel Marra in all seasons, while there were no significant differences at Rubatab. The best grain yield over locations and seasons was given by ILL 818 (2.9 t/ha), followed by ILL 813 (2.8 t/ha) with yield advantage over the check of 11 and 6, respectively. The results in the three locations justified the recommendation of ILL 813 for release for northern Sudan under the name Rubatab-1 and ILL 818 for Jebel Marra area under the name Aribi-1
