Abstract

Method of successive graphic approximations has been used to examine the influence of prevailing weather on yield of sugarcane crop at Poona. The weather during the tillering phase alone accounts for about 50 per cent of the variations in yield. These factors, when combined with the weather factors of the elongation phase, can account for about 80 per cent of the variations. The weather of  tillering phase appears to be more important in determining yield than the weather of the growth phase. The study also reveals the optimum value, if any, of a weather factor for yield. A technique has been suggested to predict yield in terms of the weather factors.
