Solution

The correct option is C Deep, well-drained fertile soil
Sugarcane is a long duration crop. It can grow in almost any kind of soil that can retain moisture. It requires deep rich loamy soil for growth. Soil must be rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and calcium. It should neither be too acidic nor too basic. Sugarcane exhausts the fertility of the soil quickly.
