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 ... -
Developing the leadership capacity of the Australian Sugar Industry : Final report LDI001
(Sugar Research and Development Corporation (SRDC), 2008)Young members of the Australian Sugar Industry see themselves as being isolated from the decision-making process, primarily because they don’t understand the process but also due to a lack of investment in developing skills ... -
