A field experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Anakapalle, Andhra Pradesh during 2015-16 in randomized block design with three replications. Treatments consisting of T1: Conventional planting/farmers practice (3 bud setts) T2: Planting of setts after over night soaking in water T3: Planting of setts after over night soaking in 50 ppm ehrel solution T4: Planting of setts after over night soaking in 100 ppm ehrel solution T5: T1+GA3 spray (35 ppm) at 90,120 and 150 DAP T6: T2+GA3 spray (35 ppm) at 90,120 and 150 DAP T7: T3+GA3 spray (35 ppm) at 90,120 and 150 DAP T8: T4 + GA3 spray (35 ppm) at 90, 120 and 150 DAP. The experimental results indicated that planting of sugarcane setts after soaking in 50 ppm or 100 ppm ethrel solution recorded significantly higher per cent germination of 86.6% and 83.8% respectively as compared to other treatments. planting of sugarcane three budded setts after soaking in 50 ppm or 100 ppm Ethrel solution and spraying of GA3 (35 ppm) at 90,120 and 150 DAP gave significantly higher cane yield of 92.0 t/ha and 90.6 t/ha respectively. Conventional three budded setts planting recorded significantly lowest cane yield of 80.0 t/ha. Juice quality parameters did not vary significantly due to application of PGRs.
