A field experiment was conducted at Sugarcane Research Institute, Bihar, Pusa (Samastipur) during spring season of 201213 on sandy-loam soil, to examine the performance of sugarcane ( Saccharum spp. hybrid com- plex) varieties to different planting geometries. The treatments comprised 4 planting geometries, viz. 120, 150, 30:References
