Spider Abundance in Sugarcane: Impact of Cultural Practices, Irrigation and Post-Harvest Trash Burning

open access: closedBiological Agriculture & Horticulture, 1997
ABSTRACT Field experiments were conducted at Coimbatore, India, to evaluate the impact of cultural practices, irrigation and post-harvest trash burning on spider abundance in sugarcane fields. Exclusion of selected cultural practices; manual weed control, earthing-up and three detrashing operations significantly (p 0.05) the number of millable canes ...

Cultural-practice packages and trash management effects on sugarcane ratoons under sub-tropical climatic conditions of India

open access: closedThe Journal of Agricultural Science, 2011
SUMMARYSugarcane (Saccharumspp.) ratoon crops comprise more than 0·50 of India's sugarcane acreage and reduce the cost of cultivation by 25–30%. However, ratooning is seldom practised beyond 1–2 ratoons because the yield declines in successive ratoons due to compacted soils with decreased fertility restricting root development and plant growth ...
