Abstract: The research was conducted at the Livestock farm complex, Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Chennai in sorghum with the objective to evaluate the application of cow dung along with irrigation water on the growth and yield. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design. Treatments were three (application of cow dung twice, application of cow dung once and without application of cow dung) and replicated four times. Growth and yield data were subjected to analysis of variance. Significant means were compared with the least significant difference at 5%. The result showed a significant increase in growth, yield and agronomic use efficiency of sorghum with respect to application of cow dung twice along with irrigation water.
