Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Sugarcane Research Institute, Shahjahahpur to study the response of sugarcane to micronutrient mixture. The crop yield significantly responded to micronutrient as a soil application @ 25 kghe−1 or it two foliar application at 90 and 150 DAP. The uptake of micronutrient increased with application of both the methods. The beneficial effect of soil application @ 25kgha−1 and foliar application @ 0.5% at 90 and 150 DAP on sucrose percent in juice and sugar yield t/ha.
