Abstract:
The current study was exhibited at Guru Ghasi das Research Station, IGKV, Kawardha (Kabirdham), C.G. in cropping season 2017-18 to evaluate mid late sugarcane genotypes for yield & yield attributing traits. The twenty genotypes and four checks viz. Co-86032, Co-99004, Co-8014 and Co-8636 of mid late set of sugarcane were assessed in the RCBD design with 3 replications for their yield and quality parameters. The sugarcane genotypes were collected from Central Sugarcane Research Station (MPKV), Padegaon (Maharashtra). Stem height, single cane weight, nodes length, yield and other quality parameters viz., Brix %, purity % and sucrose % observations were taken during the experiment period. Entry Co 13013 (153.04 t/ha) after that Co 13009 (150.13 t/ha), CoN 13074 (147.16 t/ha) and CoM 13074 (146.25 t/ha) exhibited maximum yield. All these entries were seen to be much better than the best check Co-99004 (113.10 t/ha) and showed good performance in respect of sugarcane yield and yield properties as compared to the checks.
