Climate
Sugarcane is best suited to regions having tropical climate but it can be successfully grown in sub-tropical areas also. Approximately, 80 per cent of the total growth of the crop takes place during July to September owing to congenial climate.
Soil
Sugarcane is successfully grown on wide range of soil types raging from sandy loam to clay loam and can tolerate salinity to some extent. However, well drained loamy soil is ideal for its cultivation. |
