Скачать или смотреть How much potash should be applied to the sugarcane crop and at what time should it to be applied?

Sugarcane, Saccharum officinarum L. is a perennial gras. It belongs to bamboo family and it is indigenous to India. It is the main source of sugar, jaggery and khandsari. About two-thirds of the total sugarcane produced in India is consumed for making jaggery and khandsari and only one third of it goes to sugar factories. It also provides raw material for manufacturing alcohol. Brazil is largest producer of sugarcane followed by India, China, Thailand, Pakistan and Mexico. In India, Maharashtra is largest producer of sugar and it contributes about 34% of sugar in country followed by Uttar Pradesh.
The potassium fertilized treatments experienced greater translocation of sugars from the leaves to the stalks.
Ensuring adequate potassium fertilization of sugarcane increases not only biomass production, but ultimately sugar yield. Higher sugar yield means higher returns. Make certain your sugarcane has access to an adequate supply of potassium.
A method of increasing the sugar/ sugar cane weight ratio in sugar cane crop which comprises applying to the crop at a period not more than two months prior to harvesting, a compound selected from the group consisting of 2,3,6-trichlorobenzoic acid and alkali metal salt, copper salt, chromium salt, magnesium salt, ammonium salt and amine salt thereof in amount sufiicient to increase the percentage of sugar in the crop and at the rate of 0.5 to 4 pounds of said compound per acre of crop.

All phosphorus and potash and one fourth N should be applied at the time of planting. It is preferable that P and K may be applied in furrows where seed setts are to be placed. Rest of the nitrogenous fertilizer may be applied in three equal splits

sugarcane potash fertilizer schedule
Nitrogenous and potassic fertilisers must be applied in four splits, first split during 30 – 45 days, second split during 60-75 days, third split during 90 – 105 days and fourth split during 120 – 135 days after planting.
