What is the climate required for sugarcane cultivation?

Temperature for different critical stages of sugarcane is germination, tillering, early growth, active growth and elongation. The optimum temperature for sprouting or germination of stem cuttings is 32° to 38°C. Temperature ranges above 38°C reduce the rate of photosynthesis and increase respiration. For ripening, however relatively low temperatures in the range of 12 to 14°C are desirable.
