At Rice Research Station “Jucarito”,with the purpose to select and to recommend the mostappropriate for the easthern region of Cuba, 33 rice varieties:15 of half cycle and 18 of short cycle, based of theiragronomic, industrial behavior and resistance to pest anddiseases, were studied. The results indicated that, the varietiesof short cycle IACuba-18 and IACuba-20, turned out to besimilar in agricultural yield and resistance to the main pestand diseases to the Perla, variety used as the control, butsuperiors in whole and crystalline grains, as well as in thegrain proteins percentage. Among the varieties of half cyclethey stood out the varieties IACuba-17 and IACuba-19 thatalthough they didn’t show significant differences in theagricultural yield with the control variety J-104, theyovercame it in the industrial yield and the diseases resistance.
