Environmental and economic performance indicators : Farm Management Systems for the Sugarcane Industry, sub-program 2
(2006)This project examines the use of key performance indicators within a Farm Management System (FMS) to assess changes in environmental and economic circumstances attributable to exposure to key risk factors. Such indicators ... -
Environmental factors affecting Adelina in the Burdekin region : final report CE004
(BSES, 2003)The project aimed to determine why the canegrub pathogen Adelina does not infect a significant proportion of the canegrub population in the Burdekin Delta area. It examined the effect of physical characteristics of soil ... -
Environmental stimuli for sugarcane suckering in the wet tropics : SRDC final report BSS221
(2003)The northern section of the industry has been in crisis for most of the years in the decade up to 2002 because of declining CCS. This decline has been due to increased extraneous matter levels due largely to increased ... -
Environmentally sound phosphorus management for sugarcane soils : final report on SRDC Project no CSS3S
(1998)A field and laboratory-based survey of the behaviour of phosphorus (P) was carried out on the soils of the lower Herbert River catchment, and sediments derived from them. The aim was to explore the factors governing P ... -
Epidemiology and control of sugarcane mosaic virus in the Isis district : SRC final report UQ3S
(BSES, 1992)Objectives: -
Epidemiology studies into sugarcane smut : SRDC final report BSS302
(BSES, 2010)The objective of this project was to: Optimise industry transition from susceptible to resistant commercial varieties, with minimal losses resulting from direct or in-direct crop effects, thus maximising industry profitability. -
Establishing a million tonne harvesting co-operative : Final report HGP001
(Sugar Research and Development Corporation (SRDC), 2006)The aim of the project was to form a million tonne harvesting co-operative in the Broadwater Sugar Mill area involving the amalgamation by way of merger of 7 registered harvesting groups with the option for 2 current ... -
Establishing sugarcane farming systems for better soils and improved production

Establishing the second crop cycle into permanent beds : SRDC Final report BSS306
(2010)The 'establishing the second crop cycle into permanent beds' project operated over a 3-year period from 2007 until 2010. The project aimed to assist growers who had adopted controlled traffic to re-establish a second crop ... -
Estimates of breeding value of sugarcane clones and their impact on efficient parent management and cross pollination : SRDC final report STU060
(2010)Sugarcane breeders in Australia use family trials from four regional programs to estimate breeding values of current parents. Genetic gain to the Australian sugarcane industry can be maximised through efficient parent ... -
Estimating disease-associated yield losses in breeding selection trials - Endemic diseases; Pachymetra root rot, orange rust and yellow spot
(BSES, 2007)Previous work has shown that plant improvement stage 3 selection trials can be used to assess the relationship between yield and disease resistance with particular Queensland endemic diseases - principally Pachymetra root ... -

Evaluate sugar beet for potential to produce sugar at Mackay Sugar Experiment Stations : final report TE93005
(BSES, 1993)Can sugar beet be profitably grown at Mackay? Sugar yields from beets are continuing to increase in overseas countries. Results from experiments at Kalamia Estate in the Burdekin area indicated that sugar beet out-yielded ... -
Evaluate the performance of the falling film tube evaporator at Bingera Mill : final report 2019/201
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2020)For the 2018 season Bundaberg Sugar installed a 4000 m2 falling film tube evaporator (FFTE) of the BMA design at No 1 evaporator position at Bingera Mill. This was the first installation of a FFTE into the Australian ... -
Evaluate the suitability of the fixed element crystalliser for widespread adoption in Australian sugar factories : final report 2019/202
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2020)The fixed-element design of a horizontal cooling crystalliser is relatively new to the Australian industry and the installation at Broadwater Mill for the 2017 season proved to be an economical solution to refurbish the ... -
Evaluating alternative irrigation for a greener future
(2011)The potential agronomic and environmental benefits of green cane harvesting and trash blanketing, the ongoing issues of nutrients and pesticides threatening the Great Barrier Reef, the rising ground water levels in the ... -
Evaluating commercially available precision weed spraying technology for detecting weeds in sugarcane farming systems
(ASSCT, 2013)Precision spraying systems which use optical sensing technology to detect green weeds were evaluated for their suitability for use in sugarcane farming systems. The Weedseeker® spraying system was specifically evaluated ... -
Evaluating the leaf chlorophyll meter as a tool for nitrogen management in sugarcane
(1995)Nitrogen is an important constituent of chlorophyll, the compound that gives plants their green colour and the compound that absorbs radiation energy as the basis of plant growth. When nitrogen is in short supply, the ... -
Evaluating the potential for improved sugar yields by assessing the climatic and soil constraints to production in southern cane-growing districts
(1999)This project conducted strategic research to better understand the processes of yield accumulation in low temperature NSW environments and to identify limits to yield. The fundamental knowledge gained in this project can ...
