In order to assess and compare the quantitative forage yield of berseem Clover (Trifolium alexandrinum), six berseem clover cultivars (Tolidi-e-Karaj, Selected line, Mesri, Sacromont, Letto and Zemestangozar, a cold tolerant cultivar) were used. A field experiment was carried out at SPII experimental station in Karaj in 1998-1999 growing seasons. The design of the experiment was randomized complete block (RCBD) with four replications and six treatments. The results of the experiment showed that there were not significant differences among cultivars in dry matter yield. The results of combined analysis of variance showed significant differences between years and cultivars based on dry matter yield at the 1% level. Among the cultivars, Tolidi-e-Karaj and Letto with 7.16 and 7.15 tha-1 dry matter yield, respectively, showed superiority (7% - 8%). Based on the comparison of means and other morphological characters, Tolidi-e-Karaj cultivar could be recommended as suitable cultivar for Karaj environmental conditions.
