Title : The productivity of plant sugar cane intercropped simultaneously with maize and bean
Year of publication : 1990

Citation : Ismael, F. M.; Govinden, N.; The productivity of plant sugar cane intercropped simultaneously with maize and bean; 1990
Abstract : In ten trials in Mauritius in 1987 and 1988, plant sugar cane uniformly spaced at 1.6 m between rows was intercropped with bean and maize, alone or together. At low density, the yield of bean increased proportionately with increasing density, but not at the high density. Maize grain yield also increased with increasing density but not proportionately. Neither bean nor maize yields were reduced in the presence of sugar cane. Maize reduced cane tillering, especially at high density. Cane and sugar yields were decreased with maize in every interrow of sugar cane, with bean at the highest density and with maize and bean together. The productivity of all the associated systems was greater than sugar cane in pure stand. The most productive system was sugar cane in association with bean at high density.

Citation : Saumtally, S.; Autrey, L. J. C.; Epidemiology, control and economic importance of bean rust (Uromyces appendiculatus) in Mauritius; 1990
Abstract : The incidence of bean rust (Uromyces appendiculatus) was monitored in monthly plantings from March to December 1986 using the highly susceptible variety, Long Tom. The disease was found to be more severe during the winter months with a peak of 25 per cent in July. It was practically absent in summer. Seven fungicides were evaluated at two dosages for the control of the disease. Infection was reduced by all treatments. However, none of them significantly increased yield, except bitertanol (Baycor 300 EC) at 400 and 800 ml/ha. The results also indicated that foliar infection exceeding 5 percednt has a deleterious effect on yield. In field trials to evaluate reaction to rust, 32 entries were rated resistant, 14 susceptible and 21 highly susceptible. Integrated control of the disease using chemical treatment, resistant cultivars and cultural practices is discussed.
