Study of the effect of harvesting time on seed yield and storability of two mungbean cultivars was carried out in two parts. The first involving on seed yield and quality and the second involving on the storability of seed at each harvesting time, when kept in seal-polyethylene and cotton bag. The harvesting time started from 15-39 days after peak flowering with 4 days interval. An increasing in seed yield was related to harvesting time and highest at 39 days after peak flowering. The effect of delays in harvest was manifested by a decline in seed vigour. The highest seed quality obtained from the harvest at 15-19 days after peak flowering and maintained its quality when kept in seal-polyethylene bag was better than cotton bag stored at the ambient temperature.
