A study was conducted at Merik Sial Research Farm, Kashmir Sugar Mill, Shorkot to evaluate six promising sugarcane varieties regarding their quantitative and qualitative traits. The experiment followed a Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated significant (p≤0.05) differences among the varieties for both quantitative and qualitative traits. CPF-253 demonstrated a significantly higher cane yield (1100 Md/acre) compared to other varieties, followed by YTFG-236 with a yield of 967 Md/acre. YTFG-236 exhibited the highest sugar recovery percentage (11.38%), while SPF-213 showed the lowest (9.30%). Although, YTFG-236 was also found to be more susceptible to pest attacks (23%). A recent study surveyed sugarcane growers across different agroecological conditions in Shorkot and Jhang, Central Punjab of Pakistan, during the 2023-24 season. The study found that approximately 60-70% of the sampled growers cultivate recommended varieties such as CP-77400, CPF-253, YTFG-236, CPF-237, HSF-240 and SPF-213. Among these varieties, CPF-253 received positive feedback from growers, especially regarding its ratoon potential, resistance to pests and diseases, cane yield and intentions for adoption in the upcoming season. However, YTFG-236 was less favored due to its susceptibility to borer damage. According to Kashmir Sugar Mill laboratory reports, CPF-237 and CPF-253 exhibited the highest recovery averages from December to February, at 10.87% and 10.84%, respectively.
