Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Regulated deficit irrigation reduced the technological characteristics of sugarcane compared with non-irrigation.
- Intervention effect Regulated deficit irrigation increased stalk and sugar productivity of sugarcane compared with non-irrigation.
- Intervention effect Regulated deficit irrigation did not change the number of stalks per hectare in sugarcane.
- Observation Cultivar IAC91-1099 showed the highest sugar yield (21.81 t ha-1) among the five sugarcane cultivars.
- Observation Cultivar IAC91-1099 showed the highest stalk yield (146.5 t ha-1) among the five sugarcane cultivars.
- Observation Cultivar IAC91-1099 showed the highest water use efficiency (146.7 kg ha-1 mm-1) among the five sugarcane cultivars.
- Observation Cultivar CTC4 showed little responsiveness to regulated deficit irrigation.
- Intervention effect Cultivar CTC4 had a lower number of stalks per hectare and lower water use efficiency under regulated deficit irrigation than under non-irrigation.
