Multiple regression analysis was carried out in twelve crosses of sugarcane at the first clonal,generation in order to get a measure of independent contribution of stalk number/plot, stalk weight, stalk length and stalk diameter towards cane yield. The study revealed the importance of stalk number/plot and stalk weight independently and in combination in determining the cane yield/plot.
