Can directed-spray strategies control Guinea Grass stools? : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Fillols, E; Staier, TN (ASSCT, 2019)Guinea grass is a troublesome perennial grass in our sugarcane farming system. Despite a range of effective pre-emergent and early post-emergent herbicides, optimum spray windows are often missed and established Guinea ... -
Combining weed efficacy, economics and environmental considerations for improved herbicide management in the Great Barrier Reef catchment area
Fillols, E; Davis, AM; Lewis, SE; Ward, A (Science of the Total Environment, 2020)The current Australian sugarcane industry transition toward adoption of an ‘alternative’ herbicide strategy as part of improved environmental stewardship is increasingly complicated by recent farming system, regulatory and ... -
Developing an alternative herbicide management strategy to replace PSII herbicides in the Wet Tropics area : final report 2014/050
Fillols, E; Lewis, S; Davis, A (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018) -
Effect of the soil-binding adjuvant Grounded® on herbicide efficacy and runoff losses in bare soil in ratoons : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Fillols, E; Davis, A (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 ... -
Efficacy and environmental runoff impact of alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied on trash blanketed ratoons
Fillols, E; Lewis, S; Davis, A (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 and environmental runoff impact of alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied on trash blanketed ratoons
Fillols, E; Davis, AM; Lewis, S (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
Fillols, E; Staier, TN (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 ... -
Evaluating commercially available precision weed spraying technology for detecting weeds in sugarcane farming systems
Baille, C; Fillols, E; McCarthy, C; Rees, S; Staier, T. (ASSCT, 2013)Precision spraying systems which use optical sensing technology to detect green weeds were evaluated for their suitability for use in sugarcane farming systems. The Weedseeker® spraying system was specifically evaluated ... -
Factors affecting the distribution of the vine species in sugarcane: results of GIS surveys in Central Queensland
Fillols, E; Areif, V; Staier, T (ASSCT, 2015)Extracted from the Proceedings of the Australian Society of Sugar Cane Technology, Volume 37, 2015. -
Herbicides and the water quality conundrum
Ross, P; Fillols, E; Billing, B; Davis, A (ASSCT, 2017)Herbicidal impact on the health of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) lagoon came to the forefront in 2009 with the Queensland Government’s Great Barrier Reef Protection Amendment Act 2009 and the concurrent review of diuron by ... -

Impact of application depth and slot closure on runoff losses of imidacloprid
Fillols, E; Davis, AM (ASSCT, 2020)Imidacloprid represents the Australian sugar industry’s best canegrub-management tool, but it has been detected in many water bodies, including groundwater, creeks, rivers and marine environments, posing a potential risk ... -
Impact of nutgrass on sugarcane yield
Fillols, E (BSES, 2011)Research carried out in Mackay over 2009-2010 in plant cane confirmed the impact of nutgrass competition on sugarcane yield and profitability. Trials were conducted on both dryland and irrigated sites, with similar yield ... -
Optimising spot spraying for controlling Guinea Grass : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Staier, TN; Fillols, E (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 ... -
Weed management in sugarcane manual
Ross, P; Fillols, E (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)This manual covers all stages of the sugarcane crop cycle, as well as looking at the suitability of various herbicides for various weeds, and the best application of herbicides. It also provides the latest information on ...
