Commercial cane sugar (CCS), as measured by sugar mills, is in decline in the wet tropics of Australia. One of these mills, Tully Sugar Ltd, has measured CCS in the factory as required by legislation and also measured whole clean stalk CCS through a small mill, which is free of contaminants. ‘Factory CCS’ measures the CCS of cane entering the mill, after it has been harvested. The harvesting and transport process delivers to the mill cane that is contaminated by extraneous matter such as leaf material and soil. Beween 1988 and 1998, 1516 blocks were sampled for ‘small mill CCS’. These data were combined with block productivity information to determine the trends in small mill CCS and factory CCS using a linear mixed model analysis as the data were unbalanced. Other data, including the date of harvest for factory CCS, date of sampling for small mill CCS, farm of origin and cane variety were available and fitted as random effects in the mixed model. Year was fixed to determine time related trends in the 2 measures of CCS. Small mill CCS was higher than factory CCS and remained constant from 1988 to 1998. Predicted factory CCS declined from 12.76 units in 1988 to 10.91 units in 1998. We conclude that the CCS levels in whole clean stalks were actually stable, since small mill CCS remained constant over the 10-year period. Possible reasons for the differences in the trends for the 2 CCS measures are discussed.

<p>Sugarcane is proved to absorb more Si than any other nutrient from soil; therefore continuous cropping of the plant at the same soil would bring consequences of more Si and organic matter depletion. Silicon (Si) is considered a beneficial nutrient for sugarcane production. Field study was carried out in 2013-2014 at Kempleng village; Purwoasri sub district; Kediri district; East Java. The objective was to find out the effect of frequency and concentration of Si liquid fertilizer on Si and N absorptions, stem diameter and length, yield and commercial cane sugar (CCS) of sugarcane var PSBM 901. Split plot design with three replicates was employed to arrange the treatments. As main plots were frequency of spraying (one time, two times, three times, and four times with interval of 20 days started at 30 days after planting), while as sub plots were concentration of Si fertilizer (0, 15% Si, 30% Si). Results showed that interaction between frequency and concentration of Si affected on all parameters observed. Spraying of sugarcane four times with 30% Si gave highest value of cane yield, rendement, and sugar yield, i.e. 184.16 tons/ha and 8.36%, 15.37 ton/ha respectively.</p>

Context: The prime concern of cane growers and the sugar industry is to achieve higher sugarcane productivity and high sugar recovery both of which support maximum economic return. This requires newly developed sugarcane genotypes.Objectives: To study the performance of newly developed sugarcane genotypes for plant crop and ratooning ability in U.P. Condition.   Materials and Methods: The performance of newly developed sixteen promising sugarcane genotypes along with three standards check viz.; CoJ64, CoS95255 and CoS767 were evaluated during 2005-07 at Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. Results: The experimental results revealed that significantly higher commercial cane sugar (CCS) yield was observed by the genotype UP49 (13.19 t ha-1), CoS06262 (13.67 t ha-1), CoS05263 (13.70 t ha-1), CoS06247 (12.67 t ha-1), CoS05259 (13.12 t ha-1) over three standards CoS767 (9.41 t ha-1), CoJ64 (9.54 t ha-1) and CoS95255 (12.56 t ha-1). The genotype UP49 (10.50 t ha-1) recorded highest CCS% followed by CoS06247 and CoS05263 having 10.49 t ha-1 and 10.29 t ha-1 respectively in ratoon crop. Amongst all the genotypes UP49, CoS06262, CoS05263, CoS06248, CoS06253, CoS05259 and CoS06263 were proved significantly superior over all the three standards checks in respect of cane yield. Conclusion: The UP49 was found the best performer and superior to widely adopted variety CoS767 in respect of cane yield, commercial cane sugar percent, sugar yield and pol percent in cane; under plant and ratoon crops. Key words: Sugarcane; ratoon; CCS%; sugar yield and productivity.DOI: 10.3329/jbs.v17i0.7099J. bio-sci. 17: 41-44, 2009

A field experiment was conducted to assess performance of newly developed six mid early maturing sugarcane cultivars i.e. Co 0116, Co 0118, Co 0237, Co 0238, Co 0239 and Co J 64 (Standard), with two row spacing (75 and 90 cm) under three fertility levels i.e. 75, 100 and 125% of recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF) NPK (N150 P21.8 K41.5) with plant-ratoon-wheat system. Varieties ‘Co 0238’ and ‘Co 0118’ recorded the maximum and significantly higher cane yield (93.1 and 88.9 t/ha) and commercial cane sugar (11.76 and 12.49 t/ha) and outperformed rest cultivars in plant and ratoon crop, respectively. However, both cultivars did not differ significantly for cane yield and commercial cane sugar (CCS). Growth attributes like cane length and cane girth of plant crop were not affected at closer spacing of 75 cm, but number of millable canes (NMC), cane yield and sugar yield increased by 23.94, 20.29 and 19.63% than 90 cm row spacing. While in the subsequent ratoon crop number of millable canes (NMC), cane yield and CCS yield increased substantially by 19.25, 16.70 and 16.92 per cent respectively at 75 cm than 90 cm row spacing. Closer spacing (75 cm) fetched maximum net return (209280 and 118823) with benefit: cost ratio of 1.42 and 2.27 with plant as well as ratoon crop respectively. Except varieties, the quality parameters did not undergo significant variation due to change in row spacing and fertility treatments. In monetary terms also, 100 % RDF found almost equally remunerative with 125 % RDF. Cultivar × fertility level interactions indicated that varieties ‘Co 0238’ and ‘Co 0239’ were equally productive at normal fertility level of 100% RDF. In monetary terms, sowing of Co 0238 of sugarcane variety fetched maximum net returns (285633) followed by Co 0239 ( 253406) and Co 0118( 247453) in two years cropping system of Sugarcane-Ratoon-Wheat system under the sub tropical conditions.

The performance of promising varieties was compared with already released. The varieties trail was conducted at four different sites in Punjab, it is an essential component of sugarcane research and thus provides an important basis of recommendations to growers. The objective of this paper is to evaluate promising varieties under different ecological zones. Seven sugarcane promising and two commercial clones were evaluated. These clones were tested for their performance at four locations during Feb-March-2017 in “Thal” and South Punjab viz; Karampur Mailsi, Layyah, Alipur and Khanpur. The trials were conducted at farmer’s field using RCBD with three replications. The data on germination%, Tillers/Plant, number of mill able cane, cane yield t/ha and commercial cane sugar% (CCS) were recorded during the course of study. Overall, pooled mean of four locations indicate that cane yield of clone S2003-US-127 produced statistically higher significant 124.64 t/ha cane yield as compared HSF-240 that produced statistically lower yield i.e. 103.14 t/ha. The Brix% of overall mean of four locations results S2003-US-633 was statistically significant i.e. 24.47% and Brix% of overall mean of four locations results S2008-AUS-134 was statistically lower i.e. 19.38%.
