The purpose of the study was to compare the nutritional composition [carbohydrate, protein, moisture content, fat, ash, sugar, crude fiber] of four yard long bean cultivars in Bangladesh between 2020 and 21. Consumption of foods high in nutritional value offers a variety of anti-diabetic, anti-heart disease, and anti-cancer effects. The cultivars were high in different proximate composition, the cultivars evaluated had an energy content of 45.86 to 37.21 Kcal/100 g, a carbohydrate content of 6.20 to 8.33 g/100 g, a protein content of 2.72 to 3.22 g/100 g, a fat content of 0.10 to 0.18 g/100 g, a sugar content of 1.52 to 2.37 g/100 g, and a crude fiber content of 1.17 to 1.79 g/100 g. As a result, the cultivars under investigation could be recommended as a nutritional source in daily diets and could be used to treat coronary heart disease, diabetes, intestinal disorders, prostate, stomach ailments, and some cancer kinds.

Keywords: Nutritional Content, Proximate Composition, Yard Long Bean (Vigna Unguiculata Sub Sp. Sesquipedalis L.).
