The differences between middle and basal derived setts were erratic.
Limited resources should therefore be directed to apical setts and sprouted setts which have the highest yield potential.
Traps were sited at all of the active setts associated with each group and each site was trapped for 3 successive days.
No fungicides or pesticides were applied to the setts or the crop.
Regardless of the use of improved postharvest technology, it is recommended that sprouted setts and apical setts should be planted together and on favourable sites.
Not surprisingly, the time to emergence was strongly influenced by the state of sprouting of a sett at planting.
Additionally, it was noted for each sett whether it carried a sprout.
In contrast, the significant relationship between the sprouting state of a sett at planting and yield was strongly dependent on early emergence.
If a sett carried more than one sprout, all except the most vigorous one were removed to avoid inter-sprout competition.
From a scientific point of view, our study revealed again that the origin of the sett has a truly challenging relation to yield.
Strontium placed below the sett was also accessed during the first month, but to a lesser extent.
The setts were planted at a depth of 100 to 150 mm and the area around the insertion point of the sett into the soil was subsequently mulched with straw.
