Abstract: In this paper, we have analyzed the effect of tillage practices on soil physical properties with respect to time. For this purpose the analysis of multi-observation data (measurement taken over time) in strip plot RBD has been used. It is concluded that tillage practice T1 (2 Harrowing by tyne cultivator + 1 Harrowing by blade harrow + Planking) is superior to all other tillage practices with respect to bulk density, average moisture content and porosity followed by T2(2 Harrowing by tyne cultivator + 1 Harrowing by blade harrow + Planking + Residue). Therefore, it is suggested that application of T1or T2tillage practices may be beneficial for improving soil physical properties which ultimately increase the crop production.
