Effect of Manures and Irrigation on the Yield of Sugarcane

Abstract

Experiments conducted in U. P. (Anon 1951) on Sugarcane revealed that hot weather irrigations consisting of 3-4 premonsoon and 1 to 2 post- monsoon irrigations increased the cane yield. In south Bihar (Anon 1940) three hot weather irrigations in addition to one immediately following planting was considered the most effective treatment. Additional Irrigation upto a maximum of 11 were beneficial but not economical. Chakravarti et al (1956) found that the postmonsoon irrigation increased tonnage in Bihar. An experiment on Sugarcane was conducted at the Irrigation Research Station, Bikramganj for three years, 1960-61, 1961-62 and 1963-64 to find out the frequency, depth of irrigation at two levels of manures for optimum cane yield.
