Chairman, President and
Chief Executive Officer


Dear Shareholder,

The philosopher Bertrand Russell famously remarked that, "Change is one thing,
progress is another." You will notice in the following pages that we have begun
to implement some changes to your shareholder report and we will be reflecting
other changes in future reports. Our aim is to make meaningful improvements in
reporting on the management of your Fund and its performance, not just to enact
change for change's sake. Please bear with us during this transition period.

We know that you have questions about fund managers' decisions and plans, and
we want to be sure that you have easy access to the information you need.
Keeping investors informed is, and always will be, one of my top priorities as
Chairman of your Fund. To that end, we encourage you to go to our website:
www.smithbarneymutualfunds.com where you can find additional insight on your
Fund.


In terms of your Fund's stewardship, it is with great sadness that we bring to
your attention the passing of Alfred J. Bianchetti, Director Emeritus and James
J. Crisona, Director Emeritus, of the Fund. Messrs. Bianchetti and Crisona, who
both passed away on September 4/th/, lived accomplished lives to the ages of 80
and 97, respectively. We will sorely miss their presence and will remember the
dedicated service they provided to the Fund's shareholders through their
outstanding contributions as long-term members of the Board.

We invite you to read this report in full. Please take the opportunity to talk
to your financial adviser about this report or any other questions or concerns
you have about your Fund and your financial future. As always, thank you for
entrusting your assets to us. We look forward to helping you continue to meet
your financial goals. Please read on to learn more about your Fund's
performance and the Manager's strategy.

Sincerely,

/s/ R. Jay Gerken

       1 Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc. | 2003 Annual Report




                               MANAGER OVERVIEW


Performance Review

For the 12 months ended July 31, 2003, Class A shares of the Smith Barney
Managed Governments Fund Inc. ("Fund"), without sales charges, returned 1.15%.
The Fund underperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Government
Bond Index ("Lehman Index"),/i/ which returned 4.44% for the same period. The
Fund's Lipper peer group of U.S. mortgage funds returned 2.32% for the same
period./1/

What Affected Fund Performance?

Although the Fund's holdings included a position in U.S. Treasury securities
and cash, and a small allocation to U.S. government agency issues, it was
essentially concentrated in mortgage-backed securities. Over the year,
mortgage-backed securities underperformed comparable-maturity U.S. Treasuries,
which advanced as expectations mounted that interest rates would drop. The
Lehman Index includes all public debt issued by the U.S. government and its
agencies, whereas the Fund's portfolio consisted chiefly of mortgage-backed
securities. This heavy weighting in mortgage-backed securities relative to the
Lehman Index contributed to the Fund's underperformance relative to the
benchmark. Note, however, that while prices and yields will fluctuate, the
Fund's concentration in mortgage-backed securities continued to provide
favorable yields over comparable-maturity U.S. Treasuries.

Considering that interest rates are at historic lows, we reduced the Fund's
susceptibility to rising interest rates, commonly known as duration, to help
prepare for a rising rate environment. This more conservative approach
contributed to the Fund's lower total return versus the Lehman Index. However,
if rates were to eventually rise, we expect the portfolio will be more
prudently positioned for the long term.

Market Overview -- Swings in Sentiment

While the markets for U.S. government securities collectively generated
positive total returns over the 12 months ended July 31, 2003, they vacillated
during the period due to changing tides of sentiment. Last summer, corporate
integrity concerns and doubts about the strength of an economic recovery
prompted many investors to seek relative safety in higher-rated fixed-income
investments --specifically U.S. Treasury securities. In November, however, when
the Fed cut the federal funds rate/ii/ by half a percentage point and
expectations rose that the economy may improve in 2003, many investors shifted
their money into riskier assets to seek potentially higher returns. Concerns
about the prospects of war with Iraq subsequently intensified, North Korea
joined Iraq as a headline risk and unemployment levels remained high, during
which time the Treasury markets continued to fluctuate into early 2003.

After the major battles in Iraq subsided, bond prices proceeded to rise as a
post-war rebound in business activity failed to materialize. Yields on shorter-
and longer-term issues converged as the Fed reiterated its intention to provide
the monetary stimulus needed to get economic growth back on track. Although
comments from the Fed suggested that it believed growth was likely to resume in
due course, it also signaled its determination to use all the tools at its
disposal to avoid deflation.


/1/ Lipper is a major independent mutual-fund tracking organization. Average
    annual returns are based on the 12-month period ended July 31, 2003,
    calculated among 79 funds in the U.S. mortgage funds category with
    reinvestment of dividends and capital gains excluding sales charges.

      2 Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc.  | 2003 Annual Report





Economic data were mixed, which disappointed optimists who had been expecting
more of a rebound in demand and economic activity following the end of the war.
To the delight of many bond bulls, the end of military action in Iraq initially
did little to boost employment, as anemic manufacturing and corporate capital
spending persisted and inflation remained benign.

Rally Triggered By Rate Cut Expectations

As the year advanced, yields on shorter-term U.S. Treasuries dropped to levels
near the lows they had reached prior to the Fed's meeting in late June. Before
the meeting, many market participants anticipated that the federal funds rate
would drop again, although the expectation of the size of a cut was split
between 0.50% or 0.25%. During its meeting, the Fed reduced its target by 0.25%
to 1.00% -- a level not seen in 45-years. Paradoxically, Treasury yields rose
in the aftermath of the cut as the bond market, based on the Fed's post-meeting
statement, anticipated an improving economy and lower chance of further
interest rate reductions.

By the end of July, U.S. Treasuries with longer maturities outperformed those
with shorter maturities over the 12 months because the prices of longer-term
issues are generally more sensitive to interest rate movements than
shorter-term issues (bond prices move inversely to interest rates). The
expectation of falling rates in June therefore gave more of a boost to
longer-term bonds. Mortgage-backed securities underperformed
comparable-maturity U.S. Treasuries over the past year. However, due to a
sell-off in the Treasury market in July when both fixed-income classes
retreated in price, mortgage-backed securities held up better for the final
month.

Thank you for your investment in the Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc.
We appreciate that you have entrusted us to manage your money and value our
relationship with you.

Sincerely,

 investing in U.S. mortgage-backed securities. Lipper Inc. is a
 widely-recognized mutual fund information service. The performance of the
 Fund's other classes may be greater or less than the Class A shares'
 performance indicated on this chart, depending on whether greater or lesser
 sales charges and fees were incurred by shareholders investing in other
 classes. The returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a
 shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

 All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future
 results. The performance data represents past performance including the
 investment return and principal value of an investment, which will fluctuate
 so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than

       9 Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc. | 2003 Annual Report



 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Significant Accounting Policies

Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc. ("Fund"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
diversified, open-end management investment company.

The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are: (a)
security transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) securities listed on
a national securities exchange will be valued on the basis of the last sale on
the date on which the valuation is made or, in the absence of sales, at the
mean between the closing bid and asked prices. Over-the-counter securities will
be valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices on each day;
(c) securities for which market quotations are not available will be valued in
good faith at fair value by or under the direction of the Board of Directors;
(d) securities maturing within 60 days are valued at cost plus accreted
discount, or minus amortized premium, which approximates value; (e) other
securities that have a maturity of more than 60 days are valued at prices based
on market quotations for securities of similar type, yield and maturity; (f )
interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount
is recorded on an accrual basis; (g) gains or losses on the sale of securities
are calculated by using the specific identification method; (h) dividends and
distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; the Fund
distributes dividends monthly and capital gains, if any, at least annually; (i)
class specific expenses are charged to each class; management fees and general
fund expenses are allocated on the basis of the relative net assets of each
class or on another reasonable basis; (j) the Fund intends to comply with the
applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of
taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income
and excise taxes; (k) the character of income and gains to be distributed is
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. At
July 31, 2003, reclassifications were made to the capital accounts of the Fund
to reflect permanent book/tax differences and income and gains available for
distributions under income tax regulations. Accordingly a portion of
accumulated net realized loss of $4,867,104 was reclassed to paid-in capital.
Net investment income, net realized gains and net assets were not affected by
this change; and (l) estimates and assumptions are required to be made
regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from
operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic
environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining
these estimates could cause actual results to differ.

2. Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement and Other
   Transactions

Smith Barney Fund Management LLC ("SBFM"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary
of Citigroup Inc. ("Citigroup"), acts as investment adviser to the Fund. The
Fund pays SBFM an investment advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.45%
of the Fund's average daily net assets up to $1 billion and 0.415% of the
Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. This fee is calculated
daily and paid monthly.

SBFM also acts as the Fund's administrator for which the Fund pays a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets up
to $1 billion and 0.185% of the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $1
billion. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.

Citicorp Trust Bank, fsb. ("CTB"), another subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as the
Fund's transfer agent. PFPC Global Fund Services ("PFPC") acts as the Fund's
sub-transfer agent. CTB receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary
according to the size and type of account. PFPC is responsible for shareholder
recordkeeping and financial processing for all shareholder accounts and is paid
by CTB. During the year ended July 31, 2003, the Fund paid transfer agent fees
of $222,523 to CTB.


      10 Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc. | 2003 Annual Report



 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("CGM"), formerly known as Salomon Smith Barney
Inc., another subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as the Fund's distributor.

There are maximum initial sales charges of 4.50% and 1.00% for Class A and L
shares, respectively. There is a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of
4.50% on Class B shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year
from purchase payment. This CDSC declines by 0.50% the first year after
purchase payment and thereafter by 1.00% per year until no CDSC is incurred.
Class L shares also have a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs
within the one year from purchase payment. In addition, Class A shares have a
1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs within the one year from
purchase payment. This CDSC only applies to those purchases of Class A shares
which, when combined with current holdings of Class A shares, equal or exceed
$500,000 in the aggregate. These purchases do not incur an initial sales charge.

For the year ended July 31, 2003, CGM and its affiliates received sales charges
of approximately $168,000 and $61,000 on sales of the Fund's Class A and L
shares, respectively. In addition, for the year ended July 31, 2003, CDSCs paid
to CGM and its affiliates were approximately $109,000 and $9,000 for Class B

4. Repurchase Agreements

The Fund purchases (and the custodian takes possession of ) U.S. government
securities from securities dealers subject to agreements to resell the
securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next business day)
at an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Fund requires continual
maintenance of the market value (plus accrued interest) of the collateral in
amounts at least equal to the repurchase price.

 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)



5. Futures Contracts

Securities or cash equal to the initial margin amount are either deposited with
the broker or segregated by the custodian upon entering into the futures
contract. During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value
of the contract are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by "marking-to
market" on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contract at the end
of each day's trading. Variation margin payments are made or received and
recognized as assets due from or liabilities due to broker, depending upon
whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contract is closed,
the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the
proceeds from (or cost of ) the closing transactions and the Fund's basis in
the contract.

The Fund enters into such contracts typically to hedge a portion of its
portfolio. The Fund bears the market risk that arises from changes in the value
of the financial instruments and securities indices.

At July 31, 2003, the Fund had the following open futures contracts:

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------


6. Securities Traded on a To-Be-Announced Basis

The Fund may trade portfolio securities on a "to-be-announced" ("TBA") basis.
In a TBA transaction, the Fund commits to purchasing or selling securities for
which all specific information is not yet known at the time of the trade,
particularly the face amount and maturity date of the underlying security
transactions. Securities purchased on a TBA basis are not settled until they
are delivered to the Fund, normally 15 to 45 days later. These transactions are
subject to market fluctuation and their current value is determined in the same
manner as for other portfolio securities.

At July 31, 2003, the Fund held TBA securities with a total cost of
$236,777,578.

7.  Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions

The Fund may enter into mortgage dollar roll transactions. A mortgage dollar
roll transaction involves a sale by the Fund of mortgage related securities
that it holds with an agreement by the Fund to repurchase similar securities at
an agreed upon price and date. The securities repurchased will bear the same
interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by pools of
mortgages with different prepayment histories than those securities sold.
Proceeds from the sale will be invested and the income from these investments,
together with any additional income received on the sale, will generate income
for the Fund.

At July 31, 2003, the Fund had outstanding mortgage dollar rolls with a total
cost of $236,777,578.

 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, of Smith Barney Managed Governments Fund Inc.
("Fund") as of July 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations for the
year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years
in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the
years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2003, by
correspondence with the custodian. As to securities purchased but not yet
received, we performed other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Fund as of July 31, 2003, and the results of its operations for the year then
ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year
period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the
five-year period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
