In a field trial physiological response of sugarcane cultivar HSF 240 to different nutrient doses like F1=0-0-0, F2=100-100-100, F3=150-150-100, F4=200-200-100 and F5= 250-200-100 kg NPK per ha and planting patterns G1=60cm, G2=75cm single row planting pattern, G3=30/90cm and G4=30/120cm spaced paired row strip planting pattern was determined at the research area of the Gomal University Rukh Bibi campus Dera Ismail Khan and Main Line Lower Land Reclamation Research Station Bhakkar during 2003-04 and 2004-05. The experiment was laid out according to randomized complete block design (RCBD) with a split plot arrangement having four replications. The analysis of pooled data of D.I. Khan and Bhakkar revealed that different nutrient doses influenced all the physiological traits to a significant level. The maximum Crop growth rate (CGR), Leaf area index (LAI), Leaf area duration (LAD) and Net assimilation rate (NAR), were recorded at a fertilizer level of 250-200-100 kg NPK per ha
