Field experiments were conducted on a calcareous alluvial sandy loam soil (Calciorthent) to see the comparative effect of prilled urea (PR) and urea super granules (USG) on yield and quality of sugarcane. Use of USG up to 75 per cent of the recommended dose of N increased sugar and sugarcane yields significantly in comparison with PR. Cane juice quality was not affected significantly with these materials. USG was stimulating ammonification significantly in the soil than PR and reduced nitrification significantly.
