Effect of planting methods on growth pattern and productivity of sugarcane varieties

Growth-yield performances and partial economic analysis of sugarcane under different planting methods

“…From the study, it was importantly proved that DTS 50/135 was the best planting method significantly increased sugarcane productivity up to 129.12 t/ha in IP, 134.2 t/ha in SR-1 and 114.2 t/ha in SR-2 primarily due to higher productive tillers and number of stalks per m trench. Other studies revealed that the sugarcane yield of 87A298 variety in conventional planting method was 128.7 t/ha and increased up to 149.5 t/ha using trench method (spacing-30 cm width x 30 cm depth, 12 settlings with paired systems of planting) mainly affected by number of millable sugarcanes and number of shoots/ha (Gulati et al, 2015), a double row CTC 50/170 cm + double seeds planting arrangement produced the highest sugarcane productivity of Bululawang variety and sugar yield up to 191.02 t/ha and 15.33 t/ha, respectively (Djumali et al, 2016), the cane yield of CoS-8436 variety in conventional planting system produced 77.53 t/ ha and increased up to 82.50 tons/ha using paired row trench plantation technique primarily influenced by number of millable sugarcanes, sugarcane length and weight (Prem et al, 2017), the maximum stripped sugarcane yields of 154.36 t/ha and 130.28 t/ha of CPF-247 variety mainly affected by number of millable sugarcanes and plant height in initial plant and ratoon crop, respectively were obtained from sugarcane planted at 120 cm trench planting both as sole as well as lentil intercropped (Nadeem et al, 2020). Based on the results of the study and other researches it was clearly proved that application of double trench planting system that increased in number of productive tillers and millable sugarcanes successfully increased sugarcane productivity.…”

“…The bud chips were successfully applied to increase sugarcane yield up to 37.3% than conventional method (Mishra, 2019); single bud seeds with 140 × 30 cm improved the highest sugarcane productivity up to 36.7% compared to other treatments (Ngatinem et al, 2019); and the long stalk in 1.8 m planted in narrow row of 1.25 m successfully increased sugarcane stalk number and its productivity up to 49.4% compared to other sizes (Majid, 2014). Furthermore, small pit method of planting (120 × 60 cm spacing with 3 settlings per pit) increased productivity up to 16.2% compared to conventional one (15 cm width 15 cm depth with 12 settlings per pit) of planting (Gulati et al, 2015). Paired row trench plantation stimulated slightly improvement of sugarcane productivity up to 6.4% compared to conventional planting (Prem et al, 2017).…”

“…Planting method is one of important aspects that can be carried out to increase sugarcane growth and yield performances. The method is closely related to ( 1) seed sizes such as bud chips (Mishra, 2019), single bud seeds (Muttaqin et al, 2016;Ngatinem et al, 2019) and long stalk with several buds (Majid, 2014;Prem et al, 2017) and (2) planting system viz, single and double trenches with varied sizes (Majid, 2014;Gulati et al, 2015;Djumali et al, 2016). The bud chips were successfully applied to increase sugarcane yield up to 37.3% than conventional method (Mishra, 2019); single bud seeds with 140 × 30 cm improved the highest sugarcane productivity up to 36.7% compared to other treatments (Ngatinem et al, 2019); and the long stalk in 1.8 m planted in narrow row of 1.25 m successfully increased sugarcane stalk number and its productivity up to 49.4% compared to other sizes (Majid, 2014).…”

Pertumbuhan, Produktivitas dan Hasil Hablur Klon Tebu Masak Awal-Tengah di Tanah Inceptisol

“…Komponen pertumbuhan tanaman tebu yang meliputi panjang ruas batang, jumlah ruas batang, panjang batang, dan diameter batang klon tebu masak awal-tengah pada tanah Inceptisol dipengaruhi oleh klon atau varietas yang digunakan (Tabel 1). Hasil penelitian ini sejalan dengan laporan Gulati et al (2015) yang menyatakan bahwa pertumbuhan tanaman tebu dipengaruhi oleh varietas yang digunakan.…”

Study of anatomical parameters of leaf and brix content of some promising commercial Indian varieties of sugarcane

“…Sugarcane is an important commercial crop worldwide (Misbah et al 2017;Kumawat et al 2016;Hasija et al 2003), producing 80% of the world's raw sugar and is increasingly used as bio-fuel. Physiologically, sugarcane is a C 4 plant (Gulati et al 2015) and the variation of leaf anatomy of such grass has been the subject of many studies on sugar transport and accumulation (McDavid and Midmore, 1980;Hartt et al 1963). Some anatomical studies have also been made on the photosynthetic tissue (Laetsch, 1974) and the phloem of sugarcane leaf blade (Singh, 1980).…”
