This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sugarcane is not only major industrial crop but also one of the economic pillar crops in Myanmar agriculture. Due to increased demand for local consumption and export oriented nature, it should be increased not only plantation area but also yield per unit area and recovery percentage.In Myanmar, state sector productions are target driven and private sector productions are profit-oriented on free market economy. But sugarcane based small holding farms of private sector faced many challenges. Yield of sugarcane production and cane quality is low and production cost is high due to high transportation and input cost and loan interest. The small-scale private sector operates with very low efficiency in sugar recovery, higher losses and inferior in quality. Increases in sugar production are influenced by improvements in the production technology of existing sugarcane lands, mills and new sugar processing facilities.So, there is a need for technology improvement and technical efficiency measurement. This book provides economic analysis and effective ways to improve the profitability and technical efficiency of small holder sugarcane farmers at different farm size and plant natur
Download or read book Sustainable Sugarcane Production written by Priyanka Singh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 volume 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. The comprehensive coverage includes sustainable sugarcane cultivation, development, and management of sugarcane production, covering farming and biotechnology, entomology, pathology, breeding, physiology, biotechnology, agronomy, seed production, and more. It also presents research on modern crop production methods in a comprehensive and easily understood manner. With chapters from expert researchers from internationally renowned institutes (primarily in India), the volume presents the latest information from the literature at the international level to make it usable to many agroecological regions of the world. It will be a valuable resource for agronomists, breeders, plant physiologists, farmers, and students of agricultural sciences.

Download or read book Sugar Cane Cultivation and Management written by H. Bakker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-08-31 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is intended for reference by the commercial sugar cane grower. Disciplines are covered for the successful production of a sugar cane crop. A number of good books exist on field practices related to the growing of sugar cane. Two examples are R.P. Humbert's The Growing of Sugar Cane and Alex G. Alexander's Sugarcane Physiology. Volumes of technical papers, produced regularly by the International Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, are also a source of reference. Perhaps foremost, local associations, such as the South African Sugar Technologists' Association, do excellent work in this regard. In my forty-five years of experience with the day-to-day problems of producing a satisfactory crop of sugar cane, deciding what should be done to produce such a crop was not straightforward. Although the literature dealing with specific subjects is extensive, I tried to consolidate some of the material to provide the man in the field with information, or an overview of the subject matter.

This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines productivity of peasant sugarcane farmers of rural Malawi. Specifically stochastic frontier model is employed to estimate technical efficiency scores. Cobb-Douglas production function for sugar farmers at Kasinthula Cane Growers Association scheme are estimated using maximum log likelihood methods. The results suggest that on average farmers at this scheme are technically efficient with factors such as education, land size and experience having more importance in determining their efficiency.
Download or read book Farmers Education and Profit Efficiency in Sugarcane Production written by Rangalal Mohapatra and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a globally competitive environment where everything is commercialized, agriculture is no exception. The role that education of the effective head of the farm household, education of the family of the farm household and their experience plays, in addition to the primary inputs, in improving the profit efficiency of the farm household has been empirically tested for the primary data collected from 200 sugarcane farm households in Orissa. The results of the joint estimation of parameters of profit function and the inefficiency components suggest that 93% differences in the efficiency scores are due to profit inefficiency, and profit inefficiency reduces significantly with higher education. The mean efficiency is 79% and more than 80% of the farmers achieve 70-99% profit efficiency. A grassroots level farming practice awareness program both by government and private agencies as well as the reorientation of the formal education curriculum toward farm-oriented curriculum are highly recommended.
