Develop a whole-of-crop load levelling arm : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2008)This project aims to encourage involvement of representatives from all Condong harvesting groups to work together improving their skills to carry out R&D while building onto SRDC project. (HGP002 Design and build a moving ... -
Develop and assess adaptability of different row spacings for harvester fronts : SRDC Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2007)Cutting different row widths is a piece of cake this season for a Home Hill cane harvester contractor. This project allowed an easy change of harvester front’s widths by the pull of a lever from 1.52m to 1.83m rows, which ... -
Developing a framework for advancing road transportation of sugarcane : SRDC final report SD98013
(BSES, 1998)An objective of this project was to initiate a research program for the road transportation of sugarcane. Future research projects will be undertaken with the knowledge and cooperation of key parties and therefore have ... -
Developing a new approach to extension for widespread adoption of Best Management Practice
(2002)MUL001 has sought to improve the uptake of research outcomes by the sugar industry’s growing sector. It is recognised that the traditional one-to-one extension approach is no longer affordable and the current system was ... -
Developing a new methodology for competency based training courses for shift supervisors in sugar factories : revised final report QUT032
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2014)The provision of effective training of supervisors and operators is essential if sugar factories are to operate profitably and in an environmentally sustainable and safe manner. The benefits of having supervisor and operator ... -
Developing a robust soybean industry in Central and Northern Queensland : Final report GGP060
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2013)The benefits of using soybeans as a break crop during the traditional sugarcane crop fallow period has been well documented. Trials conducted under the SYDJV highlighted that legumes, such as soybeans, produced the following ... -
Developing an alternative herbicide management strategy to replace PSII herbicides in the Wet Tropics area : final report 2014/050

Developing an integrated cropping-systems RD&E program for the sugar industry
(2008)Sugarcane trash is used extensively as garden mulch in an industry with a value in excess of $20 million per annum. The incursion of sugarcane smut has complicated the movement of trash by companies that provide sugarcane ... -
Developing cytogenetic and molecular tools to improve selection for soil-borne pathogen resistance in wild hybrids : final report 2013/358
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)In Australia, sugarcane has been grown for more than 100 years now as a monoculture without much fallow cropping. Consequently, the heavily cultivated areas had no chance to reduce the levels of soil-borne pathogens. ... -
Developing extended fallow options for the Plane Creek district : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2014)At the time of initiation of this project, sugarcane lands were being lost to cattle grazing, tree production and hobby farms due to the low returns being experienced for sugarcane. The low sugarcane returns were a product ... -
Developing implement coulters for volcanic red soils : SRDC Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2008)This project was specifically designed to alleviate problems faced by farming enterprises growing sugarcane in undulating red volcanic soils. Traditional disc coulters used on farming implements in undulating red volcanic ... -
Developing marketing skills for sugar industry technology transfer personnel : final report BSS193
(2001)The role of technology transfer and research in the sugar industry is changing rapidly. Industry needs and priorities have to be developed. Many of the service organisations are now voluntary funded. Solutions to industry ... -
Developing prescription compost to suit specific soils in Maryborough
(2014)One issue with organic based fertilisers is the variability of the nutrient content, often the amount of nutrients is not enough or too much for the crop. This project sought to solve this problem by producing and trialling ... -
Developing remote sensing as an industry wide yield forecasting, nitrogen mapping and research aid : Final report 2013/025
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)The science of Earth Observation (EO) is a rapidly developing discipline that has seen an unprecedented rise in remote sensing technologies and application development, including those in agriculture. The Australian sugarcane ... -
