A study was conducted to investigate the effect of different tillage techniques as zero-tillage (ZT), chisel plowing (CP) compared the conventional plowing method using wide level disc (WLD) on water conservation parameters, soil moisture status within the root zone (60 cm depth) throughout the season (at early, mid and late season), initial infiltration rate, time to reach final water intake rate, precipitation use efficiency, yield and yield components of sorghum crop, under rain-fed conditions. It showed that conservation tillage techniques gives better results with respect to the parameters studied i.e. soil moisture content, grain yield, dry matter yield, and other yield components such as plant height, plant population, days to 50% flowering.
