From enhancing the flavour of food to providing a substrate for
fermentation, sugar is renowned worldwide for its importance as a
commodity. For many centuries sugarcane has been cultivated and
developed, and we now have a huge range of crop varieties.
Based on Blackburn's highly successful "Sugarcane," originally
published in 1984, this new edition has been fully revised and
expanded by an international team of widely respected sugarcane
specialists. Focussing on the agricultural aspects of the crop,
this book follows a logical progression from the botany and
breeding through to planning cultivation, control of weeds, pests
and diseases, harvest management and payment for cane.
An invaluable asset to those involved in planning or running sugar
estates as well as small producers
An easy-to-follow reference for students and agriculturalists
alike
Comprehensive reference sections and further reading
