Studies were undertaken to see the influence of five planting techniques viz.; sowing in 45 and 60 cm apart furrows; 60, 90 and 120 cm apart trenches at Sugarcane Research Institute, Faisalabad during 2004 and 2005 by using sugarcane cultivar HSF-240 in R.C.B.D. with four repeats. Sugarcane germination percentage, tillers per m-2, plant height in meters, millable canes per m-2 and cane yield t ha-1 increased progressively with the increase in row spacing from 45 to 120 cm. On the basis of two years average, maximum germination percentage (54.73), tillers m-2 (15.92), plant height in meters (2.36), millable canes m-2 (13.51) and cane yield t ha-1 (104.4) were produced when the crop was planted in 120 cm apart trenches. While, sugarcane planted in 45 cm apart furrows showed minimum germination (47.75%), tillers (10.94 m-2), plant height (1.96 m), the number of millable canes (12.31 m-2) and cane yield (95.39 t ha-1).
