Best Management Practices for Organic Sugarcane and Organic Jaggery Production: An Experimental Study | Chapter 9 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 1

 Jaggery is sugarcane located natural gift made apiece concentration of sugarcane liquid squeezed from plant without any use of chemical compound. Use of chemicals to a degree hydros, and phosphoric acid, for jaggery manufacturing happened in health hazards. Quality of jaggery depends on genotypes, fiber management and clarifications secondhand in processing of jaggery. So a succession of field experiment was carried out on basic nutrient administration practices for organic sugarcane with various sugarcane varieties for basic jaggery production, that consists of three genotypes as main plot and five vitamin management practices (N1: 100 per insignificant value organics through 1/3rd each of farm yard fertilizer (FYM), vermicompost (VC), integrated green fertilizer of sun cannabis (IGM) equivalent to recommended dose of nitrogen (RDN: 250 kg N/ha). N2: 100 per insignificant value organics through 1/3rd each of FYM, VC, and Enriched Press mud (EPM) equivalent to RDN. N3: 100 per insignificant value organics through 1/4th each of FYM, VC, IGM and EPM equivalent to RDN. N4: 100 per cent inorganics through only synthetic fertilizers (250:75:190 kg of N: P2O5:K2O ha-1, respectively). N5: Integrated vitamin management as per the urged package of practice of UAS Dharwad (RPP)). The verdicts shows that Co-Snk 0632 during 2013-14, Co-Snk 05104 (SNK 814) all along 2014-15 and Co-Snk 7680 during 2015-16 written higher cane yield than added genotypes. Among the organic situations N2: 100 per cent organics through 1/3rd each of FYM, VC, and Enriched Press sludge (EPM) equivalent to RDN recorded taller cane yield, carbohydrate yield and jaggery yield than other basic treatments.  However, RPP surrendered higher net returns (Rs. 193 thousand ha-1) for sugarcane result, whereas jaggery production accompanying organic vitamin management accompanying the application of 100 per insignificant value organics through 1/3rd each of FYM, VC, and Enriched Press mud (EPM) equivalent to RDN and advertised at premium price, recorded larger net returns (Rs. 287 thousand ha-1) and B: C ratio (2.22) than additional treatments.
