Arrowing in Sugarcane

Abstract

The arrowed canes on account of shooting and the formation of pith at the top joints deteriorate sooner than the non-arrowed canes and should not therefore be left unharvested growing on the ground much longer than about 2 months from the time of arrowing It would be an advantage to harvest the arrowed canes first and sometime after- wards to take up the harvest of the non-arrowed canes. This would ensure uniformity in the ripeness of canes harvested and would save possible loss due to either over or under maturity
