Abstract
Field experiment was conducted at Sugarcane Research Station, Melalathur, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University during 2005-2008 in Randomized Block Design with three replications to study the effect of plant geometry and planting methods on the incidence of shoot borer Chilo infuscatellus and yield parameter in late planted sugarcane crop during summer months using COG 94077. The single bud seedlings were raised in bed and polybags on the same day of conventional two budded sett planted in the field. The seedlings were transplanted in the main field on 30 days after shoot borer observation taken. The intercrops were sown 3 rd day after planting / transplanting and in situ incorporated on 90 th day at the time of earthing up. The shoot borer incidences were recorded on 30 th , 60 th and 90 th days on the basis of number of shoot affected with respect to total number of shoots and cumulative shoot borer incidence was worked out. Conventional two budded sett planted on one side of ridges + black gram on the other side, recorded the lowest cumulative shoot borer incidence of 21.32 per cent. The raised bed seedlings were more susceptible to shoot borer (31.5%) than polybag seedling (22.74%) and conventional two budded planting (22.44%). Sugarcane intercropped with blackgram reduced the shoot borer incidence in all the treatments due to changes in the micro climate developed by the intercrops and non host crops acted as physical barrier. The highest sugar yield of 14.81 t/ha was obtained from cane yield of 107.25 t/ha with CCS% of 13.81 in conventional two budded setts planted on one side of the ridges+ blackgram on the other side.
