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 ... -
Overcoming on-farm constraints to productivity and profitability in a wet tropical area
(2003)The CCS in the wet tropics has been declining steadily for over three decades, a period in which green cane harvesting-trash blanketing (GCTB) has become standard practice among growers throughout the wet tropics. In the ... -

Overseas factories share options for efficiency
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)It is well known that farmers like to look over the fence to see what innovations their neighbours are up to. And while it is nowhere near as easy for millers to "look over the fence", a current project looking inside ... -
Overseas sugarcane quarantine and emergency response planning : SRDC final report BSS280
(BSES, 2005)The aim of this trip was for Dr Mohamed Sallam, BSES entomologist, to gain experience in sugarcane biosecurity and to learn about sugarcane pest and disease problems in the United States. In addition Dr Sallam participated ... -

Pachymetra chaunorhiza as a factor involved in stool tipping in North Queensland : SRDC final report BS33S
(BSES, 1991)The objectives of this project were to determine the soil and environmental factors favouring Pachymetra root rot, and how these contributed to stool tipping in the moderately resistant and susceptible varieties Q117 and Q124. -
Pachymetra root rot surveys of the Tully district update 2018 : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2019)Pachymetra root rot is a soil-borne disease that impacts all sectors of the Australian sugar industry. The disease attacks the root system of sugarcane crops, affecting yields and leading to stool loss and shortened crop ... -
