the lands are undulated and consists of large number of raised bunds, which are not suitable for mechanical cane harvesting. Further, farmers foresee more weeds in wider row spacing, which leads to again labour problem for weeding. However, in drip irrigated fields even under wide row spacing, growth of weeds is minimum; but they are deficit of moisture for earthing up. Moreover, all the available cane varieties are not well suited under wider row. Heavy lodging of canes is noticed under wider row during in rainy seasons and wind prone areas. Economics of Wider Row Spacing Versus Narrow Row Spacing Relative economic advantage is an important criterion for adoption of any new technology. The yield increase in wide row spaced sugarcane was compared with yield obtained in narrow row spacing. From Table 5, it is tangible that around 94% of the respondents got an increase in cane yield of 10–40 t/ha in wider row spacing compared to narrow row spacing, that proved the feasibility of this technology. Convincingly, 54% of the respondents got 20–30 t/ha additional cane yield and 20% each got up to 20 t and 30–40 t increase in cane yield than normal spacing. Under wider row planting, there is definite scope for reduction of input cost and additional income due to increase in cane yield (Table 6). There is also scope to get an interim/additional income from the soya/pulses
