Sugarcane CropBioLife
Application
Increase sugar recovery 15-17 %
Overall yield increase 15-30 %
BRIX increase by 15-20 %
CropBioLife is a plant foliar spray that boosts plant and soil health.
CropBioLife is a 100 % natural flavonoid- based spray, developed from naturally occurring bitter-orange extract. This application data sheet contains an overview of CropBioLife application on sugarcane crops – including what to expect, results, and spray rates.
Using CropBioLife on Sugarcane can achieve:
• Increased cane diameter
• Increased plant height
• Greater overall yield
• Improved soil biology
• Reduction in disease pressure
• Increased Cane Length
• Reduction in drought stress
• Improved photosynthesis
• Greater levels of Ethanol
• Improved root health
• Improved BRIX levels
• Improved overall health of the plant
Documented experiences:
The table below shows experiences that our customers had in which improvements were seen in key Sugarcane crop parameters following the application of CropBioLife for one season.
*Experiences may vary. ’Documented experiences’ refers to independent laboratory testing that was completed following the harvest with our customers. These increases vary according to the crop type.
Parameter | Increase in Parameter * |
|---|---|
Organic Carbon | 35 - 40 % |
No. of Tillers | 15 - 33% |
Cane Length Increase | 5 - 43% |
Cane Diameter Increase | 5 - 20% |
Plant Height Increase | 11 - 15% |
BRIX Increase | 0.84 - 1.30% |
Overall Yield Increase | 15 - 30% |

Specific Sugarcane Trial
imagery and results.
We have undertaken rigorous trials on sugarcane across eight distinct plantations, operating concurrently to ensure thorough and consistent evaluations. Each participating farmer adhered to our meticulously designed
4-stage protocol, encompassing seed/seedling treatment followed by three consecutive sprays. The outcomes have been profoundly promising. Visual evidence from these trials is provided below for a comprehensive review.
Increased No. of Tillers
Increased Cane Length
