BIO-DYNAMICS IN SUGARCANE CULTIVATION

摘要

The field experiments were conducted (2005-2008) at progressive cane growers fields in the factory zone ofK.C.P.S&J.C.Ltd., Lakshmipuram to study the influence of Bio dynamic applications on cane productivity, quality and soil health. Trials were conducted with 87A298 (Viswamithra) an early maturing cultivar by adopting uniform agronomic practices except fertilization and Biodynamic application. Two times soil application of one hour "potentized" 30 gm BD 500 + 1 kg CPP in three gallons Luke warm water during the evenings of descending period in moist soil condition, Two times foliar application of 20 minutes "potentized" 2 kg CPP in 100 liters of Luke warm during the evenings of ascending period (during tillering phase). Three times aerial spraying of one hour "potentized" 1 gm BD 501 in three gallons Luke warm water during early hours (before sunrise) on the day of moon opposite to Saturn (during grand growth and maturity phase) had significant impact on cane yield, juice quality and soil health improvement and chemical fertilizer usage was reduced by 15% and 30% in Ratoonl and Ratoon2 crops respectively.
