Abstract


Field experiments conducted at Tamil Nadu Agricultural University farm at Coim- batore with different methods of land shaping during the two monsoon seasons of 1979-80, revealed that none of the methods tried influenced the grain yield of sorghum during south west monsoon season. But during north-east monsoon season bed- furrow systems recorded significantly increased grain yield than planting in the flat bod. top of ridge, middle of ridge and at the bottom of furrow. Among the varieties tried, CO 23 sorghum was found superior to CO. 22 and CO. 21 with regards to grain yield and net income.
