Abstract:
Eight
exotic sugarcane clones imported from ARS, USDA, Canal Point, Florida,
USA and two commercial checks were evaluated for cane and sugar yield
potential at Tandojam for two consecutive years. Significant (P≤0.05)
differences were observed amongst all entries for cane yield, sugar yield
and their respective components. The highest cane yield was produced by
CL41-223 (185.16 t ha-1) followed by CP74-2005 (176.03). These
were significantly superior to both the checks in cane yield. The maximum
CCS% was recorded in AEC 86-641 (13.32%) followed by BL4 (13.21%).
