The average of the two years of yield per palm, as well as physical and chemical properties of fruit were recorded. Yield per palm was highest with palm no. 12 and 13 in comparison with other tested palms. as well as “Sakoty" cv. while the lowest yield was obtained from palm no. 2. Regarding, physical properties of fruit, fruits of palm no. 12 were the heaviest weight and highest pulp weight%. Concerning chemical properties, data proved the superiority of palm no. 13 in T.S.S% and total sugars content. Fruits of palm no. 6 had lower tannins and acidity% while the highest tannins% was recorded for “Sakoty". General evaluation revealed that palm no.12 and 13 seemed to be the superior types in yield and fruit quality among all the tested palms, as they attained the uppermost score units as compared with the standard cv." Sakoty". On the contrary, palm no. 2 and 10 showed less palm yield and inferior fruit quality.
