Abstract

Sugarcane variety U-thong 12 (02-2-477) was a cross from Suphanburi 80 and U-Thong 3. The hybridization was carried out at Suphan Buri field crops research center in 2002. The first and second selections were done during 2003-2004. After that, clone evaluations were done during 2004-2009. Field trials were conducted in Kanchanaburi, Suphan Buri and Phetchaburi. U-thong 12 gave average yield of 16.92 ton/rai in irrigated area, 19% higher than K84-200 which gave 14.18 ton/rai. For sugar yield, U-thong 12 gave the average of 2.40 ton CCS/rai which was 17% higher than K84-200 (2.06 ton CCS/rai). U-thong 12 was recommended to plant in irrigated area.
