Effect of yield components and juice quality of chewing cane (Saccharum officinarum L. cv. badila) with different spacing and nutrient management practices
2015
A field experiment was conducted during 2014–15 at Sugarcane Research Station, Sirugamani, Trichy. To study the yield components and juice quality with different spacing and nutrient management practices of chewing cane. The trail was carried in sandy soil. The result revealed that wider row spacing and nutrient management practices had significant differences between the treatments. Wider row spacing of 120 cm recorded higher cane length, number of internode and intermodal length. In case nutrient management practices 500:250:350 NPK kg ha-1 showed higher cane length, number of internode and intermodal length. Interaction between the spacing and nutrient management practices was also significant. Wider row spacing combination with 500:250:350 NPK kg ha-1 noticed higher cane length, number of internode and intermodal length. Brix, pol and purity percent was statistically non significant.
