Abstract: Sixteen mungbean genotypes studied to analyze the proximate composition and mineral contents, Mungbean is a rich source of protein, carbohydrate, Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe, P, and K. The result showed that in Green gram protein ranges from 15.8 to 24.59 %, carbohydrate 11.97 to 41.88 %, ash 3.1 to 4 %, moisture 5.26 to 10 %, phosphorus 89 to 350 mg/100g, potassium 878 to 1685 mg/100g, zing 0.85 to 2.73 mg/100g, iron 4.02 to 11.20 mg/100g, calcium 85.52 to 134.80 mg/100g and magnesium 121.22 to 168.9 mg/100g. The stated genotypes AKM-8802, PKV-AKM-4 and PKV-Green Gold showed highest % of protein and carbohydrate. Among sixteen genotypes PKV-AKM-4, BM-4, Uttkarsha and PKV Green Gold had highest amount of calcium, magnesium, Iron, and Zinc contain.
