Crop Rotation Biomass and Effects on Sugarcane Yield in Brazil

Evaluating different green manuring plant species and stool destruction methods for enhancing sugarcane yield at Wonji-Shoa Sugar Estate, Ethiopia

“…These findings underline the significance of cane weight in determining sugar yield, emphasizing the need for optimizing management measures that enhance cane weight to improve sugar productivity. These results align with the findings of Ambrosano et al [ 34 ], who observed that the use of green manures led to a sugar yield increase of 3 tons ha −1 compared to that of the control.…”

“…The green manure plant species, which included Crotalaria juncea (sunn hemp), Glycine max (soybean) , Lablab purpureus (lablab), Vigna unguiculata (cowpea), Sesbania aculeata (dhaincha), Vigna radiate (mungbean), sugarcane residue, and the control, were assigned to the subplots ( Table 1 ). The selection of green manure species in this study was based on a literature review, specifically focusing on their successful performance in other sugarcane-growing countries [ 21 , [34] , [35] , [36] , [37] , [38] , [39] ]. Sunn hemp was also used as a green manuring crop in a soil with a high clay content at WSSE.…”
