Abstract
The effects of regulated deficit irrigation technique on nutrient concentration in leaves, growth and yield of
sorghum was examined in a greenhouse at the School of Science and Food Technology, Universiti Malaysia
Terengganu. The experiments regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) consisted of a factorial combination of irrigation
regimes and soil types laid in a randomised complete block design with eight treatments for each experiment
which resulted into a total of sixteen treatments. Irrigation regimes were at four levels namely: I100, I75, I50 and I25
and the soil types were at two levels namely: Rhu Tapai and Rengam soil series.
