Improvement of Cane Yield and Sugar Yield of Sugarcane (Sacharrum officinarum) Through Maintaining Ratoon

Abstract: <p>ABSTRACT<br />The level of sugarcane yield in dry land or rainfed generally still low at 40 to 50 tons per hectare. Farmers prefer maintenance of sugarcane than unloading ratoon cane (RC). This can be understood because unloading RC requires high cost, especially in the purchase of seed cane and tillage. Approach through maintaining ratoon techniques are expected to increase production and sugar yield. The research purposes to obtain cane yield and sugar yield RC optimally with maintaining ratoo… Show more

“…However, it is essential to note that sugarcane cultivation may not always be profitable if the production gains are low and do not outweigh the costs involved. From a broader perspective, decreasing sugarcane production and quality can lead to declining national sugar production (Kadarwati et al, 2015).…”

“…The genotypes that will become candidates of new varieties must at least undergo several ratooning tests to evaluate the stability of productivity and yield. There are several rules of ratoon as compared to first harvesting crops, such as ratooning sugarcane produces lower sucrose when compared to the first crop (Nurhidayati et al, 2013), and optimum ratoon is up to three times (Kadarwati et al, 2015). The ability of ratooning is the most important economic consideration before the variety is released as a commercial variety.…”
