Abstract

Summary Foliar application of 75 kg N/ha in 10% concentration on sugarcane ratoons resulted in more growth and higher yield than the soil application of 75 kg N/ha. Over this, the soil application of 150 kg N/ha did not bring-about significant increase. The height of cane, tillers, milleble canes and leaf-N at formative phase had significant positive correlations with the yieid of cane.
