Key traits
Perennial C4 crop
High biomass production
High nutrient & water demand
How Nando helps
Enhances
Potassium and phosphorus availability critical for stalk growth and sugar accumulation
Supports
Accelerated decomposition of the residues, releasing vital nutrients for the subsequent ratoon crop
Reduces
Negative impacts of salinity stress on root function

Cultivation
focus:
Efficient nutrient cycling for ratoon crops, maintaining soil structure under heavy traffic, irrigation management

Common
challenges:
Soil compaction and degradation over multiple ratoon cycles, nutrient depletion (especially K), salinity build-up in irrigated systems, disease pressure in monoculture
