What is the best season for planting sugarcane?

Which month is suitable for planting sugarcane?

The most suitable time periods for planting sugarcane are January to March in spring and August to September in autumn. Sugarcane is a common crop and is suitable for planting in tropical areas such as Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan and Yunnan.

Sugarcane Planting Methods

1. Soil: After selecting the seeds, choose a piece of land suitable for growing sugarcane. Do not choose soil with high salt content, as this type of soil will generally inhibit the growth of sugarcane. After selecting the land, dig a channel in the ground, and then bury the selected sugarcane seeds in the fluffy ground. After watering, cover the sugarcane seeds with plastic wrap.

2. Management: While waiting for germination, the soil must be kept moist. The plastic wrap should be pulled open every day to allow the sugarcane seeds to be exposed to the sun for no less than 5 hours. This way, the sugarcane grown will be sweeter.

Sugarcane planting points

1. Fertilization: Sugarcane has a long growth period and tall plants, so it has a high demand for fertilizer. Sugarcane has different nutrient requirements at different growth stages. At the same time, growers should also pay attention to the reasonable combination of fertilizers, and use appropriate amounts to avoid burning seedlings and roots due to excessive fertilizer use.

2. Water: Sugarcane has a high demand for water. Therefore, when watering the sugarcane, you should pay attention to keeping the soil moist. Water it in time during droughts. In the growth period when water demand is low, adopt the method of less watering and more frequent watering to ensure the growth and development of the sugarcane.
