Abstract
SUMMARYSoil samples from Guneid Sugarcane Scheme, representing high- and poor-yielding sites, were collected and analysed. Yields of sugarcane were significantly and positively correlated with exchangeable potassium and clay content (P = 0·01), whereas there was a negative correlation between yield and exchangeable sodium percentage (P = 0·05). Multiple regression on soil clay content, exchangeable potassium and ESP accounted for 48·1% of the observed variability of yield of sugarcane, indicating that the clay content was the most important soil factor determining yield of sugarcane in this area.
