SUGARCANE PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY

Points to Remember• Pakistan Average Yield 590 M.• Potential 1200 to 2000 M.• Sugarcane Cultivation area Increases in Rahimyar Khan

District.• More Sugar Mills.

• Cost High.• Yield Low .• Net Profit Very Low.

Farmer

AGRAS INTERNATIONAL• 2000 to 2013• Field Services.• Quality & Quantity.• Commitment.• Technology & Range.• Minimum Cost.• High Production.

Sugarcane Yield

• Seed Rate & Quality.

• Imbalance use of Fertilizers at Critical

Stages.

• Control of Borers.

• Weed Control.

New Method of SowingRing Pit Method Advantages Zero Tillage Better Utilization of Fertilizer & Water. Healthy & more Ratoon Crop. Healthy Leaf Plant & Sugar Contents. Low Pest Infestation. High Yield & More Income. Production replaces Rate Issue. Weed Control. Lodging Reduces. Uniform Crop & Uniform Maturity.

Pit P lant ing of Sugarcane Water saving & interval increases. Nutrient availability 100%. Good germination. Inter Cropping.
