Abstract:
Results of the experiment conducted at Sugarcane Research Institute in early maturing variety Rajendra ganna-1 in year 2020-21 in split plot design having 2 factor in main plot ( Broadcasting and Band Placement) and 4 sub-plot factor(RDN + RDK in five splits, six splits, 7 splits and RDF) replicated thrice. The results revealed that cane yield was increased by 17.3 % under the band placement over broadcasting. Uptake of N, P and K was significantly higher in band placement method of fertilizer application accounting 14.13, 36.06 and 17.14 % respectively. Similarly N, P and K uptake was significantly higher with seven splits of nitrogen and potassium to the tune of 25.9, 13.8 and 33.4 % respectively.
