Abstract (AB)	Four field experiments were conducted in the two potato planting seasons to determine the relationship between canopy cover and light interception. Results indicated that canopy cover and light interception were higher in tropical than in temperate clones, and in interrows of sugar cane, canopy cover of some clones exceeded 100
