New sugarcane variety boosts yield and income with longer millable stalks!
The study looked at how different factors affect the yield of a new sugarcane variety called YT00-236. They found that the most important factors for high cane yield were millable stalks, stalk length, and stalk diameter. Millable stalks had the biggest impact on yield, while stalk diameter had the least. The researchers also created an equation to predict cane yield based on these factors. Overall, to increase cane yield, it's important to focus on growing more millable stalks and longer stalks.
