A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of different tillage and organic amendment treatments on nutrient content and uptake by kharif sorghum on Vertisol. The study revealed that the highest concentration and uptake of N, P and K was obtained with the treatment including tillage with tractor plough (T3) along with press mud compost (A2) and pulverization with rotavation (P2).
