Abstract
Sugarcane plays an important role in giving good revenue for the farmers who cultivate, it as main a crop. At this juncture, the drip-irrigation system is most needed to the farmers who cultivate this variety of sugarcane. They could get more assistance and advice from the agriculture department for getting high yield. These sugarcane become raw material for many sugar industries in India. Drip irrigation systems are expensive because of their requirement of large quantity of piping and filtration equipment to clean the water. However, the cost of drip irrigation system varies considerably depending on the crop and terrain. Steep terrain may require several pressure regulators in the system. The present study aimed that to know the major factors which induce the sugarcane farmers to implement drip-irrigation system in Erode district.
