Abstract


A field experiment was conducted at Tamil Nadu Agricultural University Sugarcane Research Station, Sirugamani to evolve suitable agrotechnology to manage the sugarcane crop grown under moisture stress condition during 1983-84 in clay loam soil. The results of the experiment revealed that the application of Nitrogen and Potassium in three splits viz., 30, 60 and 90th days after planting was beneficial for cane yield. Net return/ha can be increased either by set treatment with ethrel 200 ppm or by foliar application of potassium at 120th and 135th day after plating under moisture stress conditions.
