Short History Of Sugarcane:
Sugarcane is any of six to 37 species of tall perennial true grasses of the genus Saccharum.Sugarcane measure two to six metres tall. All sugarcane species interbreed and the major commercial cultivars are complex hybrids.
A sugarcane crop is sensitive to the climate, soil type, irrigation, fertilizers, insects, disease control, varieties, and the harvest period. The average yield of cane stalk is 60to70 tonnes per hectare per year. Sugarcane is a cash crop but it is also used as live stock fodder.
Some sugarcane varieties are known to be capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen in association with the bacterium Glucoacetobacter diazotrophicus. Unlike legumes and other nitrogen fixing plants which form root nodules in the soil in association with bacteria, G. diazotrophicus lives within the intercellular spaces of the sugarcane's stem.
