A field experiment was conducted during two kharif seasons of 2015 and 2016 on sandy loam soil to study the performance of moisture conservation practices on growth, yield attributes, yield, water use, water use efficiency, root development and economics of sorghum varieties under rainfed condition. Results revealed that variety 'Ratna-40' proved to be the most promising in growth, yield attributes, yield, root development, net return and B : C ratio as compared to Hi-tech-3201, Virat and Suraj. Crop yield was better with application of organic residue mulch @ 4 t ha-1 on soil surface in between the crop rows at 25 DAS as compared to ridging and furrowing in between the crop rows at 25 DAS and farmer's practice (control).
