Sugarcane planting technology

Sugarcane is a well-known fruit. It tastes sweet, juicy and nutritious. It is the raw material for making sucrose. We have all eaten it in our lives, but do you know how it is planted? Let's take a look at the planting techniques of sugarcane with the editor.

1. Deep ploughing and land preparation

In the sugarcane soil preparation, it is recommended to use machinery, so the efficiency is relatively high, ploughing about 35 cm is appropriate, ploughing many times to make the soil become loose, mature, and once leveled. After that, it is important to make a sugarcane ditch, which is more important. In general, the row spacing in flood and drought days is about 120 cm, while the hillside is kept at 40 cm, and the bottom of the ditch is about 20 cm. Some fine soil should be added and wait for sowing after it is done.

2. Cultivate the seed stem

First of all, we should choose a good variety, there is no doubt at this time, especially in paddy fields and low-lying land, but also to choose a good variety to plant. Generally, the sowing time is around December, and the sugarcane should be buried in the soil in advance. The sugarcane buried should be carefully selected. At the same time, the joint near the root should be cut off, and the sugarcane should be buried in the soil and watered. It can germinate in about a week. After germination, it is separated according to the situation of germination, several shoots are divided, and a good one is selected as a seed.

3. Sowing seeds

When sowing, base fertilizer should be applied to promote the growth of seedlings. Generally, 150 kg of compound fertilizer per mu is applied as base fertilizer, which is evenly sprinkled into the bottom of the ditch and mixed with the soil at the bottom to cover the soil once, so as to avoid direct contact with fertilizer on the stem and cause burns. Sow the divided stems after disinfection, pay attention to the spacing when sowing, about 30 cm per mu, and bury them in the soil, but be careful to expose the seedlings to the ground.

4. Fertilization

After sowing, it is necessary to observe the growth of sugarcane, once problems are found to be dealt with in time, there is also one thing to pay attention to is fertilization. In order to obtain high yield, fertilization is the key point. Generally speaking, sugarcane likes nitrogen fertilizer, which is beneficial to its growth and can increase its sweetness, but it is still recommended to apply organic fertilizer, which meets the requirements of environmental protection and health and cultivates green fruit.
