Title: Weed management in sugarcane ratoon crop Conclusions: Spraying of Metribuzin @1.0 kg a.i./ha as PE + 2,4-D @1.0 kg a.i./ha at 45 DARI is being adopted at VSI farms and at sugar factories.
Title: Agronomic evaluation of promising sugarcane genotypes (CoTL1153, Co2000-6 and Co2000-12) Conclusions: Genotype Co 2000-12 was found superior over CoTL 1153, Co 2000-6 and two standard checks Co 86032 and CoC671 in respect of cane yield, B:C ratio, CCS tonnes per hectare, milliable height and sucrose content when fertilized with 125 % recommended dose of fertilizers.

Title: Bioefficacy of Algrip 20WP (Metasulfuron Methyl 20% WP) against broad leaved weeds of sugarcane Conclusions: Algrip application @ 6 gm a.i./ha. with 0.2% surfactant at 2-4 leaf stage of weeds was found very effective against major broad leaved weeds of sugarcane. Two applications of the same dose can be helpful to increase the yield of sugarcane significantly.
Title: The efficacy of Velpar K4 60WP in controlling the weeds and its phytotoxicity in sugarcane Conclusions: Velpar K4 60WP @ 1200 gm a.i./ha applied either as pre emergence (5DAP) or at post Emergent (25-30 DAP) was found very effective in controlling the broad leaved weeds and the grasses in sugarcane and increased the yield significantly over untreated.
Title: The efficacy of Hexazinone 75 DF/WG against weed flora of sugarcane and its phytotoxicity on Sugarcane Conclusions: Hexazinone 75 WG @350 gm a.i./ha. application at 3 DAP and Atrazine 50 WP @ 2000 gm a.i./ha at 3 DAP was found effective against major broad-leaved weeds and the grassy weeds in sugarcane.
