Abstract
Effect of four irrigation regimes were studied on the yield of six cane varieties viz; BL4, BF 162, CPF 147, Col 148 and CP43-33. The irrigation regimes comprised the irrigation coefficients of 1.0, 0.8, 0.6 and 0.4 based on pan evaporation. The highest yields were obtained under normal irrigation equivalent to pan based coefficient of 1.0. Varieties showed different response to various irrigation stresses. The variety CP43-33 showed lowest yield reduction under irrigation stress, while BL4 suffered heavy yield losses. The variety BF 162also showed some tolerance to various moisture stress. Plant characters like higher tillering, smaller leaf area with erect leaves were found directly associated with drought resistance in CP43-33.
