Abstract
Effect of various planting techniques on growth, cane yield and juice quality of spring planted sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) was investigated at the University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Sugarcane planted in 100 cm spaced 100 x 100 cm pits in a diagonal fashion produced the highest cane yield (153.18 t har1 ) as against the lowest of 68.32 t ha'1 for cane planted in 90 cm spaced double-row strips, flat plantation. Maximum number of millable cane (15.28 m 2 ) was also recorded for crop planted in the former planting method. However, no significant effect of planting technique was observed on cane juice quality.
