    Improving the yields of ratoon crops of sugarcane : SRDC Final report BS7S
    (SRDC, 1992) Chapman, LS; Ferraris, R; Ludlow, MM; Hurney, AP
    The economics of sugarcane growing improve with the number of ratoon crops which can be grown from a single planting. In Australia, declining yields with increase in the number of ratoons limit a cycle to three to five ratoons, according to district. However, studies by BSES indicate that the most economic strategies involved growing up to six ratoons. If this decline in yield could be reduced, then more ratoons could be obtained from a single planting with the associated economic benefits.
