A PVC column experiment was conducted to study the response of rabi sorghum genotypes (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench) to different soil moisture regimes at AICRP on Sorghum, MARS, Dharwad (Karnataka) during rabi, 2019. The experiment was laid out in Complete Randomised Design with two factors. The Factor 1 consisted of five genotypes and Factor 2 consists of three moisture regimes with fifteen treatment combinations and three replications. CSV 29R in the well watered regime has recorded significantly higher yield (3.43 t ha-1) and yield parameters like panicle length (16.26 cm), grain weight per ear (26.45 g), 1000 grain weight (31.2 g) and HI (23.01 %). Moisture stress at 40-60 DAS has caused reduction in yield but the percent reduction was less in SPV 2217 (14%) followed by M 35-1 (15.7%). Whereas Basavanapada recorded higher percent decrease in yield was recorded (46.6%). Similarly moisture stress between flowering and dough stage, percent decrease was less in M 35-1(21%) followed by SPV 2217 (21.5%). While higher percent decrease was recorded in CSV 29R (34.5%).
