The present study was carried out to investigating the biochemical makeup of various Bael (Aegle marmelos Correa.) cultivars under Semi Arid Condition of Madhya Pradesh at AICRP on Arid Zone Fruits Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, JNKVV, Jabalpur (M.P.) during 2021-22. The experimental material was comprised of seven cultivars of the bael i.e. Goma Yashi, NB-5, NB-7, NB-9, NB-17, CISH-1 and CISH-2 to assess the biochemical characteristics of fruits for finding the superior cultivars in respect of quality under semi arid condition of Madhya Pradesh. The results of study revealed that the different varieties of bael exhibited considerable variation for bio-chemical attributes. Significantly highest total soluble solid ((39.22 °Brix) and lowest acidity (0.30%) was recorded in the cultivar Goma yashi. The maximum reducing sugar (4.95%) and total sugar (20.03%) was recorded in the cultivar NB-9 while non-reducing sugar (15.66%) was recorded in the cultivar CISH-1.
