This edited volume focuses on the core aspects of sugarcane
production-management under stressful environments as well as
innovative strategies for augmenting crop growth & productivity
through intrinsic and extrinsic manipulations. The various chapters
aim at bringing out comprehensive and advance information on
different aspects of sugarcane cultivation under stress
environments and impact of climate change on the sustainability of
sugarcane production. The book encompasses information about crop
production management, physiological & nutritional
requirements, ratooning, ripening and post-harvest losses
management. It also delineates various technologies that support
the continued use and improvement of sugarcane as renewable source
of food, fiber and bio-energy. The manipulations at cellular and
molecular levels, molecular breeding approaches and post-harvest
technologies are also included. The area under sugarcane
cultivation is gradually increasing because of its diversification
potential. The high productivity and biomass of the cane crop also
makes it a key source for use as bio-energy crop and a promising
raw material for bio-based agro-industries. However, poor crop
& biomass productivity due to abiotic stress is the foremost
constraint in its future commercial exploitation as sustainable
feed-stock for bio-based industries. It is therefore imperative to
understand the cellular-molecular modulation responsible to
productivity barrier under specific stress situation(s) for better
sugarcane quality and quantum under field condition. Some of these
innovative approaches are delineated in this book. This book is of
interest to progressive sugarcane growers, millers, industrial
entrepreneurs, sugarcane scientists, cane development and extension
officers, sugar industry managers and valuable source of reference
worldwide.
