      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 

      Croft, BJ; Magarey, RC; Hurney, AP; Reghenzani, JR (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 

      Croft, BJ; Magarey, RC; Hurney, AP; Reghenzani, JR (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 ...
