Results of two years field experiments conducted to explore the possibilities of remunerative autumn planting of cane by intercropping and by changing the method of planting showed that autumn planting sugarcane intercropped with sugarbeet or wheat significantly increased the cane production and gives Rs.19427- and Rs. 9681-additional income, respectivley, when compared with standard practice of spring planting giving monetary return of Rs 10646 per ha. Further it was observed that paired planting of sugarcane at 45 cm and using the 135 cm inter-paired space for growing intercrops was superior to uniform raw spacing.
