Abstract
Studies pertaining to the effect of pit and Oat planting systems on the yield and quality of autumn sugarcane were conducted at the Postgraduate Agricultural Research Station (PARS), University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. The different planting treatments comprised 60 em apart single rows, 90 em apart double row strips, 90 em apart tripple row strips, 90 em apart four row strips, 120 em apart four row strips and 100 em apart 100 x 100 em block pits. The experiment was laid out in a randomised complete block design with four replications. The variety used was COJ-64. The crop was planted on October 7, 1988 and harvested on December 2, 1989.The highest number of millable cane/m2 (12.77) was recorded in case of 100 em apart 100 X 100 em pit planting system as compared to the lowest of 9.34 for 90 em apart double row strip planting system.
