Integrated nutrient management programme is unavoidable for achieving sustainable sugarcane production along with quality of sugarcane. Application of organic nutrient sources viz., farmyard manure, cane trash, pressmud, vermicompost. biomethanated distillery effluent, biogas slurry, biocompost and biofertilizers along with inorganic sources of nutrients in combination have recorded increased cane yield over only inorganic fertilizer application, in addition to improvement in soil fertility and reducing the cost of cane production. Intercropping and incorporation of green manures have established beneficial effects in improving sugarcane productivity in conjunction with higher nutrient use efficiency. Nitrogen fixing biofertilizers' are useful in economizing the increment in cane yield. Integration of organics and inorganics in 1:1 ratio leads to saving of 50% inorganics and increase in yield upto 21%.
