Abstract: To study the storability of betelvine cultivarsrnin West Bengal condition an experiment was conducted in an established borojrnduring December 2012 to November 2013. Storage behaviour of different betelvinerncultivars was greatly influenced by temperature and relative humidity of thernboroj. The experiment was designed in Completely Randomized Design withrnfourteen treatments and five replications. CARI-2 showed In rainy season thernlowest percentage (30.99 %) of storability was recorded in Chamundai Bhabna andrnhighest percentage (57.37 %) was found in storability of leaves was recordedrn90% and 19.64% after 5 days and 21 days of harvesting respectively duringrnwinter season and 73.36% and 2.87% during rainy season when depetiolated betelrnleaves were stored in bamboo basket with green banana leaves in room condition.
