An experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance of 11 tomato cultivars under the agro-climatic conditions of Dera Ismail Khan. The trail was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RBCD) with three replications. Data were collected on different parameters including days to flowering, days to fruiting, stem diameter, fruits per plant, fruit weight, fruits per cluster, fruit length, fruit diameter, yield per plot (kg) and yield per hectare (tons). The results indicated that tomato cv. Vegnesh and Nandi took the minimum days to flowering and fruiting. Maximum stem diameter was reported in Vegnesh. Maximum number of fruits per cluster and fruit length was obtained in cv. Jyothi and Vegnesh. Maximum number of fruit per plant, weight of fruits per plant, fruit diameter, yield per plot (kg) and yield per hectare (tons) was recorded in cv. 131 and Vegnesh. It was recommended that tomato cvs. Vegnesh, 131 and Jyothi performed well under the agro-climatic conditions of Dera Ismail Khan.
