Abstract

                                It is proposed to review here the salient features of sugarcane research in the State in the last five years. It is not proposed to deal with the advances made elsewhere. The cane cultivators of this State are interested in new varieties, methods of manuring, irrigation, inter-culture and control of pests and diseases. While the cane cultivators of the State have proved their potential ability to achieve very high yields, it was by no means achieved by intimate knowledge of the crop in the field, nor through economic application of manure, water and pest control.
