Plantation of High Yield Variety of Sugarcane
Generally, the percentage of high yield sugarcane variety is very low as high yield sugarcane varieties demand balanced doses of fertilizer and irrigation etc. Besides, high yielding sugarcane is more susceptible to pests and diseases. Therefore, the growers are generally reluctant to adopt plantation of high yield sugarcane varieties. To motivate the cane growers, various incentives are provided by the factory. With the concerted efforts of the factory to develop sugarcane in the area, early and mid maturing varieties are being sufficiently supplied to the factory and cane growers are now preferring to go for high yield varieties. The factory has already introduced CoS-8436 and CoS-88230 sugarcane variety in the first phase on commercial scale.

Seed Distribution
Quality seed in crop husbandry is of prime importance, especially in case of sugarcane. Development of good nursery farm will have direct impact on productivity of sugarcane and also on recovery of sugar. Replacement of old seed by improved and healthy seed will increase the yield of sugarcane. It will directly benefit the cane growers and factory.

The factory has adopted three-tier seed nursery programme for supply of improved seed to cane growers for plantation. The plantation is done as first step seed nursery under different promising varieties. The produce from first step nurseries is being made available to sugarcane growers through sugar mill. The sugarcane seed produced and raised scientifically on the lands of cultivator is also supplied and distributed to other growers as a third step nursery. In this way factory is able to make available good quality cane seed every year.
