Answer 2

Answer: Sugarcane is a tropical plant, therefore, requires a year warm weather to reach maturity. The areas having temperature of 20° to 26°C and an average rainfall of 150 cm are suitable for its cultivation.

In many areas water is partly supplemented by the canals. Much sunshine is required, particularly at the end of the growing season, to produce cane with high sugar content.

Sugarcane grows well in alluvium and light-clay soil. Moist clay-loam with good drainage is the best soil for cane. As the crop is a valuable one large amount of fertilizers are used to increase the yield. Sugarcane cultivation also needs suffi­cient capital and labour.
