This study was conducted with the aim of investigating the yield and yield components of Panicum millet plant under the conditions of combined stresses of salinity and deficit irrigation as a split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications and 48 treatments at the research farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Ilam University. Treatments included four levels of irrigation water salinity including 0.63, 3, 5 and 8 dS/m (S1, S2, S3 and S4 respectively) and four irrigation levels including 100, 80, 60 and 40 (w1, w2, w3 and w4 respectively) percentage of water requirement was done. The traits studied included leaf-to-stem weight ratio panicle length, plant height, shoot weight, thousand seed weight, seed yield and harvest index. The results showed that the applied salinity stress levels had a significant effect on harvest index traits, seed yield, thousand seed weight, shoot weight, panicle length and plant height at the 5% and there was no significant difference only on the leaf-to-stem weight ratio trait. The combined effect of salinity and deficit irrigation stress on all traits except for panicle length was significant at the 5%. Millet in the conditions of no stress (S1W1) and the highest level of stress (S4W4) applied in this study could yield 3.76 and 1.71 tons per hectare, respectively.
