STUDIES IN SUGRACANE III. Preliminary Note on the responses of Sugarcane to Different Nitrogenous Manures

Abstract

In the course of some pot culture studies undertaken to investigate the differential influences of several types of nitrogenous, manures on the quality and the proportion of the non-sugar-organic matter in the cane juice (1) which was indicated previously to have a considerable influence on the crystallisability of sucrose and the quality of jaggery (2), some very interes- ting differences were noted in the effects of the several manures used on some of the important agronomic characters of both the varieties of cane experimented upon viz., Co. 213 and Co. 421. These responses were con- sistent in all the repetitions in both the varieties.
