“…Considering the trend of stem number and single stem dry weight in HC plots of Shimanousie (Figure 2), crops of RC6 or later in HC plots would indicate less yield Single stem dry weight is another important factor for high yield. In the present study, the weights of KRFo93-1 stems were consistently greater in the HC plots than in the Control plots (p < 0.10; Figure 2), in agreement with Sakaigaichi et al (2013). A similar trend was observed in Shimanoushie; however, the dry weights of stems from the HC and Control plots were almost the same in the RC5.…”

“…However, these tillers did not survive due to shading by tillers emerged from the below ground nodes, as shown in Sakaigaichi et al (2013). In the present study, the plant type, especially the basal part of the stem in KRFo93-1 was more erect than that of Shimanoushie (visual observation).…”

“…In a previous study (Sakaigaichi et al, 2013), we investigated the difference of growth and yield of KRFo93-1 between stubble shaving after high-level cutting plot (Control plot) or high-level cutting without stubble shaving plot (HC plot), in order to clarify the effect of stubble shaving after high-level cutting. We found that the dry matter yield of the crop was significantly higher in the HC plots than in the Control plots and that the increase was the result of enhanced single stem dry weight.…”

“…A few studies have examined the effects of stubble height on yield in ratoon crops such as forage sugarcane [ 15 , 16 ], rice [ 17 , 18 ], and alfalfa [ 19 ], as well as the effect of stubble height after mowing [ 20 , 21 ]. However, little is known about the effects of cutting depth or the length of remaining stalk on ratoon cane yield or the ratooning cycle.…”

Effect of cutting depth during sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrid) harvest on root characteristics and yield

Ratooning is an important cultivation practice in sugarcane production around the world, with underground buds on the remaining stalk acting as the source for establishment of a subsequent ratoon crop. However, the optimal depth of cutting during harvest in terms of yield and root growth remains unknown. We carried out a two-year field study to determine the effects of three cutting depths (0, 5 and 10 cm below the surface) ratoon cane root and yield. Results showed that cutting to a depth of 5 cm increased the root fresh weight and root volume by 21–59% and 41–127%, respectively, compared to cutting depths of 0 and 10 cm. Remarkably, cutting to a depth of 5 cm also had a significant effect on the development of fine roots, which is closely linked to cane yield. The effect was particularly noticeable in terms of two root traits, root volume and the surface area of roots with a diameter of 1.0–2.0mm, and root length and the number of root tips in roots with a diameter of 0–0.5mm. As a result, a cutting depth of 5 cm below the surface increased cane yield by 43 and 28% compared to depths of 0 and 10 cm below the surface, respectively. Overall, these findings suggest that a cutting depth of 5 cm is optimal in terms of sugarcane yield, largely due to the enhanced effect on root traits, especially the development of fine roots. These findings will help optimize sugarcane ratoon management and improve the ratoon cycle.

Ratooning is an important cultivation practice in sugarcane production around the world, with underground buds on the remaining stalk acting as the source for establishment of a subsequent ratoon crop. However, the optimal depth of cutting during harvest in terms of yield and root growth remains unknown. We carried out a two-year field study to determine the effects of three cutting depths (0, 5 and 10 cm below the surface) ratoon cane root and yield. Results showed that cutting to a depth of 5 cm increased the root fresh weight and root volume by 32-40% and 49-85%, respectively, compared to cutting depths of 0 and 10 cm. Remarkably, cutting to a depth of 5 cm also had a significant effect on the development of fine roots, which is closely linked to cane yield . The effect was particularly noticeable in terms of two root traits, root volume and the surface area of roots with a diameter of 1.0-2.0mm, and root length and the number of root tips in roots with a diameter of 0-0.5mm. As a result, a cutting depth of 5 cm below the surface increased cane yield by 35 and 25% compared to depths of 0 and 10 cm below the surface, respectively. Overall, these findings suggest that a cutting depth of 5 cm is optimal in terms of sugarcane yield, largely due to the enhanced effect on root traits, especially the development of fine roots. These findings will help optimize sugarcane ratoon management and improve the ratoon cycle.
