Abstract: The fennel seeds with uniform size green colour and optimum fiber content are preferred by customer and have high demand in national as well as International Market with premium price. For this purpose, the present investigation was carried out at the Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Vegetable Science and Seed Science and Technology, Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar to find out the optimum stage at which umbel/seed should be harvested for maximum acceptable fiber content in seed. For this purpose seeds of all order umbels were harvested at 25,30,35,40,45,50,55 and 60 days after anthesis. The fiber content of seed irrespective of umbel order was found optimum when seeds/umbels were harvested at 30 and 40 days after anthesis but maximum net return was obtained at 40 days after anthesis stage. In case of other quality parameters i.e. test weight, germination percentage, seedling length; vigour index and yield were increased with each 5 days delay in harvesting after 40 days of anthesis.
