🌱 Variable Rate Fertiliser Application – Sugarcane

Another step towards more targeted nutrient management in sugarcane.

This application involved variable-rate urea and sulphur, with the rate adjusted according to the prescription developed for each area of the block.

📍 Prescription map → Application → As-applied map

The as-applied map allows us to verify how the application was actually distributed across the block and compare it back to the original prescription.

The goal is simple: apply the right rate in the right area, making better use of inputs while matching application rates to field variability.

One of the keys to improving yields and reaching crop yield potential under irrigation is managing when to irrigate 💧🌾

Avoiding both water stress and over-irrigation is essential, as both negatively affect crop growth.

Tools like soil moisture sensors help optimize irrigation decisions and improve overall efficiency.

Late sprays or the wrong herbicide can cause 12–30% yield loss in sugarcane. 🌱❌

Proper timing, the right application window, and correct product selection help reduce w**d competition and minimize yield losses. 💪🌾

🌿 Quick Facts About Mung Beans in Sugarcane Crop Rotations 🌿

A short-cycle crop with big advantages 👇

✅ Fast Maturity: Some varieties reach harvest in just 2–3 months, making it ideal as a fast cash crop between sugarcane cycles or fallow periods.
✅ Harvest Timing: Mung beans flower intermittently, so harvest when 80–90 % of pods are mature for best quality.
✅ Soil Benefits: As a legume, they fix nitrogen and help break monocropping cycles, improving soil structure and fertility.
✅ Export Market Value: Current prices sit around US $1,200–1,400 / ton, keeping it a profitable short-term option.
