- Intervention effect Among the irrigation regimes, sub surface drip irrigation at 1.0 PEF gave higher tillers and millable canes (112.99 thousand).
- Intervention effect Fertigation with 75% RDF (50% P and K as basal, balance through water-soluble fertilizers) gave the highest tillers and millable canes.
- Intervention effect Sub surface drip irrigation to SSI cane at 1.0 PEF with a 2-day interval gave the maximum cane yield (147.16 ton/ha).
- Intervention effect Sub surface drip irrigation to SSI cane at 1.0 PEF with a 2-day interval gave the maximum sugar yield (18.41 ton/ha).
- Intervention effect Fertigation of 75% RDF to SSI cane gave the highest cane yield (135.04 t/ha).
- Intervention effect The combination of irrigation at 1.0 PEF and 75% RDF fertigation gave the highest cane yield (156.25 t/ha) in the interaction effect.
- Intervention effect The combination of irrigation at 1.0 PEF and 75% RDF fertigation gave the highest sugar yield (19.94 ton/ha) in the interaction effect.
- Intervention effect Water use was highest (1684 mm) at the 1.0PEF irrigation regime, compared with the 0.8 PEF regime.
- Intervention effect Water use efficiency and water productivity were highest under drip irrigation at 0.6 PEF, compared with other irrigation regimes, due to less water use.
- Intervention effect Gross income and net return were highest when irrigation at 1.0 PEF was combined with 75% RDF fertigation.
