The study was conducted at the Wondo Genet Agricultural Research Center, Ethiopia, latitude 8°25'59'', longitude 39°01'44''and altitude of 1800 m.a.s.l to determine optimal soil moisture depletion level for lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus L.). Six level of soil moisture depletion level (20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 100% of total available water of the soil (TAW) with three replication were used as treatments to evaluate the yield and yield component of lemongrass in randomized complete block design. Different level of soil moisture depletion level significantly (p
