Substrate: the best choice is to plant sugarcane ditch in fertile land and plough deeply. Water content: in the growing period, irrigation should be strengthened. In other stages, the sugarcane field soil should be kept slightly wet, and attention should be paid to drainage and waterlogging prevention. Nutrient: sufficient base fertilizer should be applied before planting, and then top dressing should be applied timely to increase yield. Temperature: it is warm and suitable for planting in tropical climate.

1. Substrate selection: in order to meet the needs of its root system growth and make the root system better absorb nutrients and water, it is better to choose fertile land, cultivate sugarcane ditches, prepare the land for deep ploughing, and create deep and loose soil conditions for its growth..

2. Water management: it has a large demand for water, but it is not waterlogging resistant. It needs more water during its growth period, so it needs to strengthen irrigation. In other stages, it is enough to keep the sugarcane field slightly wet. Pay attention to sugarcane field can not water, need to timely drainage to avoid plant rot.

3. Nutrient management: it has a long growth period, tall plants and high yield, so it should be given enough nutrients during the planting process. Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied before planting, and then top dressing should be done timely. At seedling stage, a small amount of fertilizer can be applied. At tillering stage, the frequency of fertilizer application is gradually increased. It absorbs the largest amount of nutrients in growing stage. Therefore, more fertilizer should be applied at this time, which can effectively increase the yield, and reduce fertilizer application in mature stage.

4. Temperature management: it is warm, annual accumulated temperature needs to reach 5500 ℃ - 8500 ℃, daily average temperature is more than 20 ℃, suitable for planting in tropical climate

2. Cultivation techniques

1. Propagation method: it is suitable for planting from February to march in spring or from August to September in autumn. When cutting, select erect, thick and uncrowned sugarcane stems, cut them into several segments of double bud seedlings, and then plant them obliquely or flat in the sugarcane ditch. Pay attention to the spacing of sugarcane seedlings when planting. Too dense or too sparse spacing will affect the yield.

2. Pruning method: with the growth of the plant, the bottom leaves will gradually turn yellow and wither. In the later stage of the growth, the withered leaves can be pruned, which can promote the growth and maturity of the plant, increase the yield and sugar content.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Yellow leaves: in the later stage of its growth, if the lower older leaves are yellow and dry, they need to be peeled off in time, and each plant can retain six to seven leaves.

2. Disease: its main diseases include white leaf disease, leaf blight, black ear disease, etc. once the disease occurs, it is necessary to pull out and burn the diseased plant in time to prevent the disease from infecting. At ordinary times, more attention must be paid to it, and it is better to select resistant varieties..

4. Other issues

1. Moral: it has a good moral of "thrifty and rich". Many areas have the custom of eating sugarcane, which means that the new year is going up.

2. Toxicity: it has no toxicity, in which the sugar content of sugarcane is very high, which is generally used for sugar production.
