Effect of long-term application of potassium on sugarcane and soil properties in the Herbert River district : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2019)Excess potassium (K) fertiliser use can have a significant effect on sugar quality and refining costs but offers no benefit to sugarcane crop yield. Potassium fertiliser guidelines are based on soil texture and two ... -
Effect of neonicotinoid, pyrethroid and spirotetramat insecticides and a miticide on incidence and severity of Yellow Canopy Syndrome : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2019)Yellow Canopy Syndrome (YCS) is a condition affecting Australian sugarcane that can lead to yield losses in excess of 30% in severely affected crops. The causal agent of this condition is unknown. Insect pests are well ... -
Effect of the soil-binding adjuvant Grounded® on herbicide efficacy and runoff losses in bare soil in ratoons : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2021)To reduce the impact of pesticides, in particular pre-emergent herbicides, on fresh and estuarine water bodies of the Great Barrier Reef catchment, while maintaining productivity, the sugar industry is exploring innovative ... -
Effective use of lower mill mud rates in the nutrition program
(2014)In 2011 Mackay Sugar changed its mud truck fleet to enable low rates of banded mill mud and mud/ash application on farm. The aim of this was to: make mill by-products available to more growers, lessen the impact of Reef ... -
Effects of natural enemies on soldier fly (Inopus rubriceps) populations in Queensland
(BSES, 1983)A study was initiated in 1981 to determine the role of natural enemies of soldier fly in south east Queensland. The objective of this work was to gain an understanding of soldier fly population dynamics in its native ... -
Effects of pachymetra root rot and nematodes on some elite sugarcane clones in Australia
(ASSCT, 2016)PACHYMETRA ROOT ROT and nematodes are the two most important soil-borne pathogens of sugarcane in Australia. An experiment was established in Yandaran, Queensland in grey forest soil with high Pachymetra spore counts (>100 ... -
Efficacy and environmental runoff impact of alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied on trash blanketed ratoons
(ASSCT, 2018)THE EFFICACY OF alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied just after harvest on green trash blanketed ratoons was investigated in three field trials in the wet tropics, Far North Queensland. The study also ... -

(ASSCT, 2018)The efficacy of alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied just after harvest on green trash blanketed ratoons was investigated in three field trials in the wet tropics, Far North Queensland. The study also ... -
Efficacy of alternative pre-emergent herbicides applied in trash-blanketed ratoons in the Wet Tropics
(ASSCT, 2016)As a result of continued exceedances in permissible pesticide levels in watercourses, the Australian sugar industry is under considerable environmental scrutiny, which has resulted in the restriction of use of products ... -
Efficient pumps : keeping your costs down
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2013)Knowing how much a pump costs to run and how efficiently it is pumping makes it easier to decide what to change. Replacing a pump is a significant investment, but poorly performing pumps could be costing more to run than ... -
Efficient use of water resources in sugar production: a physiological basis for crop response to water supply
(1999)Although sugar is produced in the some of the most humid regions of Australia, water remains a major limitation to production. Experience in other rainfed and irrigated production systems in Australia has shown that use ... -
Efficient use of water resources in sugar production; optimising the use of limited water under supplementary irrigation
(2000)About 60% of sugar produced in Australia depends on irrigation. In some regions, production would be impossible without irrigation; in others, irrigation is used to supplement rainfall. It can improve production and reduce ... -
