	~~__NOTOC__{{Plantbox~~		'''Sugarcane''' is any of six to thirty-seven species (depending on taxonomic system) of tall [[perennial plant\|perennial]] [[Poaceae\|grasses]] of the genus ''Saccharum'' (family [[Poaceae]], tribe [[Andropogoneae]]). Native to warm temperate to tropical regions of [[Asia]], they have stout, jointed, fibrous stalks that are rich in [[sugar]], and measure two to six meters (six to nineteen feet) tall. All sugar [[cane]] species interbreed, and the major commercial [[cultivar]]s are complex [[Hybrid (biology)\|hybrids]].

			Sugarcane cultivation requires a [[tropical]] or [[temperate]] climate, with a minimum of {{convert\|60\|cm\|in}} of annual moisture. It is one of the most [[Photosynthetic efficiency\|efficient]] [[Photosynthesis\|photosynthesizers]] in the [[plant kingdom]].

			Harvesters by cutting the cane just above ground-level using [[cane knife\|cane knives]] or [[machete]]s.

			Once cut, sugarcane begins to lose its sugar content.

	===Propagation===		===Propagation===
	~~{{edit-prop}}<!--- Type propagation info below this line~~, ~~then delete this entire line -->~~		Although sugarcanes produce seeds, modern stem cutting has become the most common reproduction method. Each cutting must contain at least one bud. Once planted, a stand can be harvested several times; after each harvest, the cane sends up new stalks, called '''ratoons.''' Successive harvests give decreasing yields, eventually justifying replanting. Two to ten harvests may be possible between plantings.

	===Pests and diseases===		===Pests and diseases===
	~~{{edit-~~pests~~}}<!--- Type pest~~/~~disease info below this line~~, ~~then delete this entire line -~~->		The cane grub can substantially reduce crop yield by eating roots; it can be controlled with [[Confidor]] or [[Lorsban]]. Other important pests are the [[larva]]e of some [[lepidoptera\|butterfly/moth]] species, including the [[turnip moth]], the [[sugarcane borer]] (''Diatraea saccharalis''), the Mexican rice borer (''Eoreuma loftini''); leaf-cutting ants, [[termites]], [[spittlebug]]s (especially ''Mahanarva fimbriolata'' and ''Deois flavopicta''), and the [[beetle]] ''Migdolus fryanus''. The planthopper insect ''[[Eumetopina flavipes]]'' acts as a [[phytoplasma]] vector, which causes the sugarcane disease [[ramu stunt]].<ref>[http://www.biology.ox.ac.uk/sugarcane_nov.html ''Eumetopina flavipes'' and Ramu Stunt]</ref>

	==~~Species~~==		Numerous pathogens infect sugarcane. See the [[List of sugarcane diseases\|list of sugarcane diseases]]. [[Sugarcane Grassy Shoot Disease\|Grassy Shoot Disease]] [[(SCGS)]] caused by ''[[Phytoplasma]]'', [[Whiptail disease]] caused by [[smut]] (''[[Ustilago scitaminea]]''), [[Pokkah Boeng]] caused by ''[[Fusarium moniliforme]]'', [[Red Rot]] disease caused by ''[[Colletotrichum falcatum]]'' are important and widely found diseases of sugarcane. Among [[viruses]], [[Sugarcane mosaic virus]], [[Maize streak virus]], [[Sugarcane Yellow Leaf Virus]] are found seldom.
