Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at Sorghum Research Station, SDAU, Deesa during
Kharif season in 2015 essential to evaluate the effect of production resource constraints in sorghum production. Application of full package of practice with improved hybrid or local cultivar markedly improved yields (grain and stover) and economic remuneration. In case of labour shortage, full package of practice without thinning in improved hybrid did not significantly affect yield and economic returns. Fertilizer, weed control and plant protection were the vital key inputs for sorghum production respectively, on the order of priority.
