The sugarcane crop, one of the most important crops commercially grown in about 115 countries of the world, faces a number of problems, such as low cane productivity, biotic and abiotic stresses, high cost of cultivation, postharvest losses, and low sugar recovery.

This new volume, 'Sustainable Sugarcane Production,' addresses these issues and provides a comprehensive account of the major advancements in sugarcane research.

The book is compilation of recent achievements in sugarcane development and cultivation.

It covers a number of improvements made in cane and sugar yield using both conventional and new biotechnological approaches by agricultural scientists and researchers.
