| Abstract | Khon Kaen 3 is currently relased as a new sugarcane cultivar for the Northeast and a hybrid between clone 85-2-352 and K 84-200. It was named 94-2-200 in breeding program for period of 1995-2007. It had totally been conducted as preliminary, standard, standard, field and field test during 1995-2007, Results showed that for 35 experimental plots average cane yield of plants and ratoons cane were 18.1 and 16.5 ton/rai, respectively. These were 25 and 28 percent higher than cultivar Uthong 3 (standard check). Average commercial cane sugar (CCS) of plant and ratoon cane were 14.6 and 15.1 ton/rai, respectively and they were not significantly different from Uthong 3 in both plant and ratoon canes. This cultivar does not have flower therefore, cane weight and CCS could not reduce even though in late season harvest. Khon Kaen 3 is suitable for green harvest because of loose leaf sheath and easily to de-trash. Good tillering ability of Khon Kaen 3 and quick cover their land of leaves would reduce cost for weeding. Khon Kaen 3 is moderately resistant to smut and red rot disease. Loamy sand is likely a high potential soil for this culture and about 400,000 rai in the Northeast were occupied in 2010. Row spacing of 1 to 1.5 m. and plant spacing of 12.5 to 25 cm or as whole stalk which was cut into 30 cm length are officially recommended. For Korat soil series and late rainy season planting, 9-6-6 and 18-6-6 kg per rai of N-P2 O5 -K2 O are also officially recommended for plant and ratoon canes, respectively. For Satuk soil series and rainy season planting, 18-15-9.5 kg per rai of N-P2 O5 -K2 O are also recommended as well for both plant and ratoon canes. |
