Item Optimising productivity and variety recommendations through analysis of mill data : Final report 2016/32(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2021) Stringer, JoanneThe annual productivity of the Australia sugarcane industry fluctuates significantly across most sugarcane growing regions. Although some of this regional variation can be explained by extreme weather events or disease incursions it is important to identify those causes which can be controlled in order to increase profitability for industry. Development of innovative tools to analyse and summarise mill data within a region can be used to identify those farm production units performing below potential and the factors associated with this. An increased understanding of these factors will broaden the adoption of improved farming practices by working with local industry to enable more appropriate selection of varieties to match field conditions, addressing impediments to farm productivity and Nutrient Management Planning.
