Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to see the effect of seed rates and row spacings on the growth and yield of late planted sugarcane at Regional Research Station, Kheri (Sangrur) during 1995–96 and 1996–97. Pooled data of plant and ratoon crop on cane yield, tillers, millable canes and cane height revealed that significantly higher cane yield was obtained from the crop planted with the seed rate of 75,000 three budded seed setts/ha. It might be due to more tillers, millable canes and cane height. Maximum cane yield was recorded under the 75 cm spacing which was at par than those obtained under the row spacings of 60:30 and 120:60. The lowest cane yield was obtained under the row spacing of 90 cm. It indicated that pair row spacings of 60:30, 120:60 and 120:30 found superior in producing cane yield as compared to regular 90 cm row spacing.
