Abstract: An experiment was conducted to plan research strategies on the basis of identified problems under dryland agriculture through survey and effect of tillage practices on cropping systems in the field at ARSS, Aklera (AU, Kota), Jhalawar. The experiment was laid down with 3 tillage treatments viz. Summer disc harrowing + Cultivator , Deep summer ploughing + harrowing + cultivator, Summer Cultivator + cultivator and 3 important crops Soybean, Black Gram and Maize and examined in a split plot design with four replications. Major soils of the domain area are vertisols with finer texture clay loam, so poor in physical condition. Major research strategies plan was prepared to execute in the study area. The yield under tillage operation of Deep summer ploughing + harrowing + cultivator was found significantly superior followed by treatment of Summer disc harrowing + Cultivator. Significantly higher yield of maize crop was recorded over other crops.
