The sugarcane station at Coimbatore has evolved a number of new cane varieties which are rapidly ousting the indigenous ones in all the provinces. The thin and the medium thick canes are specially evolved to suit the demands of the North Indian cane cultivators who supply their canes to the mills. With a severe summer, when the temperature goes up to 110-112°F. for several days. and with an in- different system of cultivation as is practised by most of the ryots in North Bihar under non-irrigated conditions, the only possibility of improving the cane supply for a successful cane industry is to evolve drought resistant varieties which give a fairly high tonnage and sucrose content.
