Hello,

I frequently take soil samples for analysis to schedule fertilizer recommendation for different crops. Mostly, I take samples from 0-15 cm depth.

Is this is an ideal depth for all crops? how does it work with deep rooted crops/ tree crops/sugarcane crops (ratoon)? Also, how does the acidic sub surface soil influences plant growth for deep rooted crops?

Thanks

Attached photos are clicked by me during the field visit to the drip irrigation farmer, As per my knowledge Drip irrigation is done in the root zone to get proper benefits from it. But the farmer was saying sugarcane's roots are spread in the farm and it will absorb water. I gave him detailed benefits of drip irrigation method in terms of saving water, reducing weed by proper method of drip, power, fertilizers, etc. Also he satisfied with the same. Also suggest me is it right method by farmer?

I'm preparing nanoparticles using sugarcane bagasse. the method for its preparation include boiling of sugarcane bagasse. I want to know how boiling effect bagasse composition or what changes occurs in bagasse after boiling.

We know rice is a C3 plant. In context of rising global temperature, C4 plants (maize, sugarcane) are likely to have some physiological advantage over c4 plants. Rice scientist have been working to develop c4 rice varieties. What is the prospect of c4 rice varieties in rice growing Asian countries?

Some farmers use to do foliar applications of sucrese (sugar) and molasses in plants addressing improvements in plant health and increasing yield. Does it make sense physiologically?

I have taken the data from a field trial established to screen the sugarcane varieties for sugarcane grassy shoot diseases(GSD). RCBD with three replicates was used to establish the trial. Standard varieties are not available for GSD. Therefore, comparison and rating will not be possible.

The number of GSD infected clumps (phenotypically) and # of total clumps had been taken as the main data of the trial in the one-month intervals from 1 to 12 months (12 disease counts). Disease incidence was calculated. In addition, yield data were taken.

1. Could you please explain what kind of statistical analysis is suitable for analyzing the data taken here in order to find the varietal response for the GSD by the SAS program based on disease data?

2. What data (# disease clumps or disease incidence) is appropriate to use for analysis? Further, it would be a great support if anyone can give an idea of how to write CLASS and MODEL statements of SAS for analyzing this data.

Thank you

I am trying to estimate hemicellulose percentage in a lignocellulosic biomass like rice straw, sugarcane bagasse.

Sugarcane and sugar

I have a question, I stirred the sugarcane biomass with ruthenium, added sodium alginate and gelled in an iron solution. Soon after, pyrolysis at 700ºC. I'm having this DRX profile, I'm suspicious that I have amorphous zero-valent iron particles, so I don't see spikes at 45° as expected. It would be possible?

Given the chemical treatment applied to sugarcane bagasse in adsorption of heavy metals how can I exclude the effect or factors that the chemical modification affects?

Diaz, P.. (2016). Consequences of Compost Press Mud as Fertilizers. DJ International Journal of Advances in Microbiology & Microbiological Research. 1. 28-32. 10.18831/djmicro.org/2016011005. Organic fertilizers derived from Sugar Press Mud (SPM) yields better production of crops. Sugar press mud or the sugarcane filter-cake is the residue of sugarcane industry which results from the processing of sugarcane where sugar mud is separated from the crush. The total supply of sugar press mud varies from (1-7) kg from the processing of 100 kg of sugarcane. Sugar filter cake is used as a suitable fertilising agent since it is rich in micro and macro nutrients along with organic carbon. It is eco-friendly and protects the plants from various soil borne diseases. Press mud compost does not include any substances which are unfavourable for microbial action. In certain cases, press mud is mixed with other organic fertilizers to yield enriched compost. Whatever the case, the resultant press mud should not be added to the soil directly as it affects the welfare of human health due to the fast growth rate of pathogenic fungi. These are the disease causing microbes whose growth rate must be inhibited. The review deals with the physical, chemical and microbial functions on the press mud resulting in excellent bio-fertilizers. Enriched press mud is mixed with gibberellic acid to inhibit the growth of toxic chromium which affects the metabolism of plants. The fields which are ineffective by the over use of chemical pesticides can be brought into control by constant use of bio-fertilizers such as press mud. Usage of chemical pesticides may destroy the insects causing damage to the fields, but its impact over the health of living beings is tremendous. Press mud, on the other hand, is safe and very effective in producing income and killing certain insects affecting the crops as well.

Good practices during preparation, fermentation and distillation can reduce the concentration of acetic acid in distilled spirit to keep the standard quality of final product. However, I want to ask if is there any corrective measures to reduce the high acidity found in the product after processing?

They are facing difficulties in selecting the herbicides safe to both the crops. Atrazine is safe to sugarcane but not safe to Populus tree. Kindly suggest pre or post herbicide being safe to both sugarcane and Populus tree.

Good day. I am looking for references on plant tissue culture medium for my study. My study right now is on fermented solutions derived from plant wastes as a replacement for the medium in the plant tissue culture. I already read flyash and sugarcane vinasse, but I need more literature. Hope you can help me and also give suggestions for my study. Thank you.

Hello everyone,

I've been struggling with this matter:

We have data on sugar cane production (soils, treatments, weather …). We want to understand in which conditions soil/plant nutrition will yield the best result. It is hard to infer causality as some treatments are often performed jointly and we are not able to isolate the partial effect of the applications of interest.

Any one has any leads on interesting statistical methods please ?

Thanks a lot

Tiller dynamics in Sugarcane.

Kindly provide the information for use of cutter planter and harvester etc in sugarcane.

Sugarcane is a vegetatively propogated crop.

Embryogenic callus masses treated with ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) in proper concentration and selected on medium added NaCl in in vitro condition to gain stable mutants with salt-tolerant character. After that, those are evaluated in ex vitro condition for agronomic characters. Could anyone suggest me a good procedure for carrying out?

It is needed for calculating the resource allocation and planning of the crop for planting in sub-tropical India.

Due to high cost of production, sugarcane is becoming less remunerative crop. Hence crop diversification in sugarcane farming systems is one of the important strategy which can increase the net returns of sugarcane farming.

I want to develop a method to preserve sugarcane juice in any form.

Hello all,

As part of my Ph.D. wok, I am carrying out Co-pyrolysis of biomass (sugarcane bagasse) with HDPE. For the same, I have carried out TGA kinetics experiments for various ratios of biomass and HDPE (1:0, 1:1, 2:1, and 4:1) under inert atmosphere. From the TGA thermos gram, I had evaluated the activation energies of sugarcane bagasse using iso-conversional methods such as Friedman, Flynn–Wall–Ozawa, and Kizzingar-Akahira-Sunrose. Through these methods my calculated average activation energy turns out to be 207.56KJ/mol,232KJ/mol and 203.1858 KJ.mol respectively. Even though these values are somewhat consistent, they are higher than the reported value in the literature. What will be the main reason for these higher values? Is it normal to have these higher ranges? Any insight to arrive at a meaningful conclusion for publication of these results will be of great helpful.

sugarcane produce more tiller because of that we cannot maintain equal spacing hence how we can calculate crop growth rate for sugarcane when we do research on different spacing

The crop is of 40-45 days old at farmers fields. The farmers have applied two different unapproved combinations of herbicides and insecticides. First unapproved combinations was application of Atrazine @ 5.0 kg +2,4- D amine 1250 ml/ ha ( products dose) herbicide in 40 Days old crop in standing water of about 10 cm. Another unapproved combinations was application of Thio+phorate+carbendazim in plant and ratoon crop. Can anyone help me in distinguishing the exact cause of these symptoms.?

My polymer is epoxy and fiber is sugarcane

Hi all,

I was explaining the plant schedule of crops to a coworker and was describing the purpose of a fallow year as a way for the soil to rejuvenate. In the case of sugarcane, I know it is common for the ground to be consistently tilled in the fallow year to avoid new growth. My coworker asked me why they don't just plant a cover crop in the third year to avoid tilling and I honestly don't know the answer to that.

Any help is appreciated!

Keeping in the view, some suggestions are prepared for growers/farmers of Sindh to overcome the possible threat.

1. what is the growth rate of farm mechanization for sugarcane farming?

2. its statistics ?

3. Future potential ?

Sugarcane + Onion were planted on same day. Onion was planted on raised bed whereas sugarcane in furrows. Sugarcane setts were covered with 3-4 cm soil. Pendimethalin herbicide was sprayed on soil surface after two days of onion transplant. Whether sugarcane germination will be affected due to heavy rainfall on next day of spray? We suspect that pendimethalin may come in direct contact of sugarcane buds.

I'm looking for ranges of Nitrogen and Phosphorous in Sugarcane leaves and stalks.

I need to know the protocol for measurements Specific Surface Area laboratory for sugarcane bagasse

Sugarcane and onion seedlings were planted in mid January. Pendimethalin was applied as pre-emergence two days after planting. Kindly suggest post emergence herbicides which are safe to both the crops.

usage and utlization and collection of sugarcane straw

Sugarcane is a member of the grass family and is valued chiefly for the juices that can be extracted from its stems. The raw sugar that is produced from these juices is later refined into white granular sugar. As a sugarcane plant matures throughout the growing season, the amount of total sucrose in the cane increases. Most of this sucrose production occurs when the plant has fully matured and begins to ripen.

What areas of the world, mites are one of the sugarcane pests?

Hi I currently doing a research proposal using sugarcane bagasse in some pretreatment and I want to measure the composition (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, ash) using this method (Hashabra et al. 2017) link:https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/55a7/72c4f0600c9bbc054aa8e30dcfaa14ef592b.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjwwtKYqOblAhVKYo8KHQa3BLYQFjAAegQIARAB&usg=AOvVaw160UFDAuf8uIhNG-F-uRXj

Hashabra et al use 1 g of sawdust to measure the composition, but my advisor think it is too small amount. Maybe because different kind of substrate? Any recommendation how many grams bagasse do I need to take to measure the composition?

I also want to see the structure using SEM, FTIR and XRD. Any recommendation how many grams sugarcane bagasse for each SEM, XRD and FTIR?

Thank you before

For reducing cost of cultivation and improving profitability through mechanization of sugarcane farming in tropical Indian conditions many farmers have adopted wide row sugarcane planting.

I am currently working on a project whereby we extract nanocellulose from sugarcane bagasse.

However I was told that we need to market it in someway to attract buyers, so I was wondering what kind of products can be made from the nanocellulose made from sugarcane bagasse?

Thanks.

Hi there,

We'd like to extract DNA from microbes living in soybean, wheat and sugarcane roots, but we can't use liquid nitrogen by now for grinding some of these hard materials. Also gringing with a lysis buffer should be our last option given the number of samples. So I was wondering in other ways of breaking root cells. Did someone ever tried other ways like using beads and shaking, for example.. or other?

Many thanks

Does anyone have a fuzzy method to solve mixed pixel in crop (sugarcane/rice) classification for district level area?

what is the temperature and time required for concentrating?

My research involves the synthesis of graphene oxide from sugarcane bagasse and one procedure that caught my interest is the addition of ferrocene during the pyrolysis of the aforementioned agricultural waste. I am sure that the ferrocene acts as a catalyst for a reaction, but I am completely clueless what reactions/mechanisms are involved during the thermal conversion. I am also curious about the success rate of this procedure and if there are things or certain parameters that I should consider before actually doing the procedure. Thanks!

I have been working on a research regarding Si fertilizer application on Sugarcane crop. Many literature indicates that 0.01M CaCl2 method is most suitable. If it so can anyone provide the correct procedure to determine plant available Si using 0.01M CaCl2 extraction method?

In our lab, we often get contamination from endophytic fungi and bacteria in sugarcane explants (young leaf sheath and buds). I will like to know about experience of other related researchers in this type of issue.

Respected Seniors,

I want to estimate crop biomass through sentinel-2 images of an area. The crops are (wheat, maize, tobacco, and sugarcane). Kindly help me to find out formulas and methods for it. Your suggestions and recommendations will be highly appreciated.

Sugar beet has the advantage of low crop water demand over sugar cane. It may save huge amount of irrigation water when compared to sugarcane. Moreover, crop duration of sugar beet is 5-6 months which is nearly half of sugar cane growing period. It is possible to cultivate two crops in a year. The sugar content of sugar beet is also considerably good. The above ground portion of the plant can be used as fodder as well. My question is, whether sugar beet can be an alternative / substitute for sugarcane in the future without affecting sugar production of the country? What are all the major constraints in promoting sugar beet? Please give your answer with justification. Many thanks in advance.

Foliar fertilization is a quick and efficient way to improve crop nutrient status during periods of high nutrient demand in the crop, or soil-applied fertilizers less available to the plant.

My questions what is an appropriate time to supply nutrients as foliar for sugarcane crop. The nutrient contains nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, Sulfur, Calcium, Magnesium, zinc, iron, manganese, and copper when we added as a single or combined system.

. it is critical to determine the effect of crop load on the capacity of properly timed foliar fertilizers to increase the yield of sugarcane.

The question for researchers in the fields of soil science, plant nutrition, crop physiology and agronomist specialized in sugarcane crop.

Therefore, my request is to provide me with any practical suggestions to increase my knowledge concerning these issues, besides the literature review, technical report and articles also are needed.

I am doing a study on the life cycle of sugarcane bioethanol. I am starting with sugarcane farming and will proceed to sugar and molasses production and finally ethanol production from molasses. I will eventually also need data of waste generation from both the sugar plants and the bioethanol plants from various countries.

If anyone has such data kindly share with me please.

Thanks

I want to estimate nitrogen (N) content in the sugarcane fields using sentinel-2 optical data (Multi spectral Imagery). I have read few papers where simulated values helped in potatoes and other field but not for sugarcane.

If possible, I am ready to see for other remote sensing techniques to estimate nitrogen.
