Abstract

Highest cane yield was recorded with75 cm row spacing, however, CCS yield was not significantly affected due to spacing management. The number of millable canes, and cane and CCS yield were highest with normal irrigation than drought management practices. The quality of sugarcane juice was not significantly influenced due to various management practices.
