Influence of Planting Dates on Cane and Sugar Yields for Some Sugarcane Varieties
Authorized by Mohamed Owais Ahmed Galal
The
present study was carried out at El-Mattana Research Station, Luxor Governorate,
Agricultural Research Center, Egypt. In two plant crop seasons of 2017/2018 and
2018/2019 to study the effect of planting dates on yield for three sugarcane
varieties (G.T.54-9, G.98-28 and G.84-47) grown at three planting date in
mid-March, mid-April and mid-May. The date of harvesting was in mid-March for
all planting dates. A split plot arranged RCBD, in four replications, was used
for the experiment. The three varieties were randomly distributed to the main
plot while the three planting dates were assigned to sub-plot. The results
indicated that planting sugarcane in mid-March was superior in millable
cane/fed, cane weight, as well as cane and sugar yields in both seasons. The
commercial sugarcane variety G.T.54-9 surpassed the other two varieties in the
number of millable canes/ha, cane weight, as well as cane and sugar yields.
However, the variance between the commercial sugarcane variety G.T.54-9 and
G.84-47 in the studied traits was mostly insignificant.
