Share-farming options for the Australian sugar industry : SRDC Final report BSS298
(2007)The Australian sugar industry is faced with an aging farmer population, high land prices that limit expansion and a large number of small farms. Share farming and leasing have the potential to solve these three problems.This ... -
Short and long term impacts of green cane trash blanketing on soil fertility
(2005)In the last three decades, there has been a widespread adoption of green cane harvesting-trash blanketing (GCTB) in the Australian sugarcane industry, generally motivated by the practical advantages (e.g. weed control, ... -

Singing on the same song sheet: Examining harvester speed & components
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)Three modified sugarcane harvesters are part of field trials this season to examine improved synchronisation of ground speed and front-end components of the harvester. -
Six Easy Steps TM meets industry, bovernment and community obligations
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015)Backed by ongoing research, modification of the sugarcane industry's nutrient management guidelines has been occurring for the past 15 years. SRA has been extending those guidelines to the industry through a one-day, ... -

Smut-proofing the Australian industry - ensuring a reliable cane supply through reduced genetic vulnerability to sugarcane smut
(BSES, 2009)Since the smut incursion and subsequent spread of the disease breeding for smut resistance has become an essential priority for the BSES-CSIRO Variety Improvement program. The strategy that has been adopted includes the ... -
SmutBuster: accelerated breeding of smut-resistant sugarcane varieties : SRDC final report BSS325
(BSES, 2011)Sugarcane smut is caused by the fungus, Ustilago scitaminea Syd., and is one of the most serious diseases of sugarcane. At the end of 1983, only the sugar industries of Australia and Fiji remained free from smut. Sugarcane ... -
Sniffing out ratoon stunting disease
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015)While is may not be quite as cute as a beagle, 'e-nose' technolgoy is proving to be effective at sniffing out things that shouldn't be there. In this case it's ratoon stunting disease (RSD) in sugarcane. -
Sodic soils and rising groundwater management in the Burdekin
(2013)Sodic soils are a production limiting issue for large areas of the Burdekin region. Saline soils, saline groundwater and rising groundwater tables also have a high possibility to further limit yield potential. Rising ... -
Soil compaction studies - Mossman
(1975)Study was initiated to investigate the effects of the different bin transport systems on soil compaction. Compaction under dry soil conditions does not appear to be a serious problem and can ve overcome by cultivation. ... -
Soil constraints to productivity improvement
(1990)Yields of most crops are known to decrease if that crop is grown continuously without fallowing or rotation with other crop species. Sugarcane has been grown continuously on many fields in Queensland for 50-100 years. ... -
Soil constraints to productivity improvement
(1991)Evidence from investigations into fumigation, fungicide application, fallowing and growth of sugarcane on recently cultivated soils strongly suggests that yields in established cane growing areas are being restricted by ... -
