Optimisation of experimental design and analysis for variety trials to maximise genetic gain : SRDC final report UQ023
(2001)The analysis of field experimental data usually assumes independent observations. This method is often inappropriate if the data contain strong spatial trends. Methods of analysis (commonly used in cereal trials) which ... -
Optimisation of nutrient management of the Queensland sugar industry : SRDC final report BSS176
(2002)This project, BSS176, set out to give the sugar industry an indication of how bringing nitrogen rates back to within BSES recommended levels would not only save production costs, but also improve ccs, thus improving ... -
Optimisation of the initial stages of the New South Wales selection program : SRDC final project report BS96S
(2002)The main aim of this project was to obtain the basic information required to implement an efficient and effective breeding and selection program in NSW. However, the project suffered major difficulties that affected the ... -
Optimising benefits of GPS integration into controlled traffic farming (CTF) system : SRDC Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2008)The modification of the haulout has been completed and been in operation for the 2007 harvesting season. The aim of the project was to primarily reduce the compacted area on the ends of the rows during the turning around ... -
Optimising cane harvester extractor performance : SRDC Final report BS65S
(1996)The three year project to optimise cane harvester extractor peformance was directed into three separate areas - evaluation of existing commercial or semi commercial cleaning system -development of an extractor hood design ... -
Optimising CCS at harvest
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)Farm management decisions for maximising profit don't always mean spending extra money. -
Optimising productivity and variety recommendations through analysis of mill data : ASSCT peer reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2016)Production peaked in the Herbert River mills in 2005 but since then productivity has declined. Analysis of mill data in the Herbert has successfully identified groups of farms with similar productivity over time and the ... -
Optimising productivity and variety recommendations through analysis of mill data : final report 2014/054
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)Production peaked in the Herbert River mills in 2005 at 5.5 Mt, and in 2015 was 4.5 Mt. Cane and sugar yields during this period have also been below average, particularly in 2011, and significant areas went from growing ... -
Optimising productivity and variety recommendations through analysis of mill data : Final report 2016/32
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2021)The 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 ... -
Optimising rejection of dirt by cane harvesters : SRDC Final report BS26S
(1994)Project objectives were -
Optimising spot spraying for controlling Guinea Grass : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2019)Established Guinea grass stools are commonly found in our sugarcane-farming system. No registered herbicides that are both effective on perennial Guinea grass stools and selective to sugarcane are available. Directed-spray ... -

Optimum canegrub management within new sustainable cropping systems : SRDC final report BSS266
(BSES, 2010)This project addressed the issue of canegrub management in new farming systems. Many cane growers are adopting or planning to adopt one or more components of 'new farming systems' - legume rotations, reduced tillage and ... -
Optimum family felection for net merit grade : stage 2 trials BS45S
(1996)Mass selection of individuals in seedling or early clonal stage trials is routinely used in most sugarcane improvement programs throughout the world. It is, however, inefficient as the Heritability of cane yield on a ... -
Optimum plot shape for variety trials - effect of competition between varieties : Final report 39905083
(1991)Four plot shapes were compared using four replications of 60 clones. The shapes were 4-row long (4L), 4-row short (4S), 2-row long (2L) and 1-row long (1L). The standard length of 9.2m was used for long plots, short plots ... -
Optimum selection strategies in original seedlings particularly for heavily lodged crops : SRDC final report BS46S
(1999)The objectives for this project were: to evaluate the effectiveness of family selection in the plant crop of original seedlings of sugarcane grown to full crop potential in the Burdekin region. The crop will probably be ... -
Optimum time of harvest for high early sugar varieties : SRDC Final report BS705
(1997)To assess the optimum time of harvest for high early ccs varieties, two experiments were conducted on the BSES Experiment Station at Bundaberg between 1993 and 1996. The first experiment included eight varieties selected ... -
Options for auditing and certification of farm management systems : Farm Management Systems for the Sugarcane Industry, sub-program 4
(2006)Key stakeholders within the sugar industry, surrounding community and Government are concerned over the potential impact of sugar production on the environment in general and the highly sensitive world heritage listed ... -
Overcoming barriers to controlled traffic adoption : SRDC Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2007)At the commencement of this project, the available solutions for keeping harvesting traffic centred on wider row spacings while adequately filling cane bins are not effective. This was due to unsuitable harvester elevator ... -
Overcoming constraints to high yield and CCS in large and lodged cane crops
(2001)Past research indicates that large sugarcane crops (that usually also happen to be lodged) experience a slowdown in growth during winter, well before harvest (Muchow et al. 1996). The project examined factors affecting the ...
