An experiment was conducted during 2011-12 in the laboratory of the department of Agricultural Biochemistry, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur to study the quality evaluation of some desi and kabuli varieties of chickpea. The experimental material related to study are 10 different chickpea varieties i.e. four Kabuli viz., KAK-2, L-550, BG-1053 and JKG-1 and Desi varieties viz., DCP-92.3, JG-74, KWR-108, Vishal (Pule G-87207), BG-256 (Pusa-256) and Sadabahar were evaluated in Randomized Block Design with three replication. Results revealed that bolder seed was recorded in desi-type of chickpea variety-vishal and in kabuli type chickpea variety KAK-2. More soluble protein was recorded in desi-type chickpea variety KWR 108 and in Kabuli type of chickpea variety BG 1053. Desi type of chickpea varieties recorded lowest starch content than kabuli type of chickpea varieties. Lowest value of total phenol was recorded in one kabuli type variety-KAK2 and two desi type varieties-Sadabahar and KWR-108. Maximum value of total carbohydrate was recorded in desi type of chickpea variety of KWR 108 and Kabuli type variety of BG 1053.
