Sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) has significant cultivation potential in arid and saline–alkaline regions due to its drought salt tolerance. This study aims evaluate the mechanisms by which increased soil salinity reduced irrigation affect growth, aboveground biomass, stem sugar content of sweet sorghum. A two-year field experiment was conducted, with four levels (CK: 4.17 dS/m, S1: 5.83 S2: 7.50 S3: 9.17 dS/m) three (W1: 90 mm, W2: 70 W3: 50 mm). The results showed that significantly both emergence rate decreases ranging from 11.0% 36.2% reductions biomass 15.9% 43.8%. Additionally, led 6.3% (S1), 8.8% (S2), 12.8% (S3), respectively. also indicated photosynthetic efficiency, including net (Pn), stomatal conductance (Gs), chlorophyll (SPAD), hindered under water stress, Pn decreasing up 50.4% SPAD values 36.3% highest stress conditions. These findings underscore adverse impacts on sorghum’s performance, accumulation, offering critical insights for optimizing saline environments.
