Abstract
The field experiment was conducted at the
Vasantdada Sugar Institute (VSI), Manjari, Pune, during 2024–25 to evaluate the
performance of promising elite sugarcane genotypes under different fertilizer
regimes in the peninsular zone of Maharashtra. The study assessed growth and
yield attributes, cane yield, and quality parameters of twelve sugarcane
genotypes along with one standard check. Considerable variation was observed
among the genotypes with respect to cane yield, its components, and quality
traits. The results indicated that application of 25% additional fertilizer
over the recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF) produced the highest cane yield
(101.82 t/ha) and commercial cane sugar (CCS) yield (14.98 t/ha), though the
differences were not statistically significant. Among the genotypes, Co 18012
recorded the highest cane yield (115.50 t/ha), whereas Co 18003 exhibited the
highest CCS yield (16.90 t/ha).
