A field experiment to evaluate the response of sugarcane varieties to waterlogging
Salter, B; Park, G; Kok, E (ASSCT, 2018)RECENT PRODUCTIVITY REVIEWS in the Herbert and Central regions identified strong negative correlations between excessive rainfall and productivity. Waterlogging has a significant effect on sugarcane productivity. It ... -

The health of the GBR is under pressure ... -
Aspects of temporal N management in sugarcane in sub-tropical Queensland : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Panitz, JH; Schroeder, BL; Skocaj, DM; Salter, B (ASSCT, 2019)The proximity of the Australian sugar industry to the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) has resulted in ongoing concerns about elevated concentrations of the dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) in the near-reef environments due to ... -
Australian sugarcane nutrition manual
Calcino, D; Schroeder, B; Panitz, J; Hurney, A; Skocaj, D; Wood, A; Salter, B (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)On-farm nutrient management has a key role in farm and industry sustainability, and in ensuring minimal off-site impacts occur. -
Boosting NUE in sugarcane through temporal and spatial management options : Final report 2014/045
Schroeder, BL; Salter, B; Skocaj, DM; Panitz, JH; Park, G (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)This collaborative project involved the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) and the Sugar Research Australia (SRA) Technology Unit. It aimed to evaluate methods of matching nitrogen (N) supply (from soils and fertilisers) ... -
Effect of harvest time on N-fertiliser requirements in the Wet Tropics : ASSCT extended-abstract paper
Skocaj, DM; Schroeder, BL; Park, G; Salter, B (ASSCT, 2019) -
Evaluation of genotypes for a controlled traffic farming system : SRDC Final report BSS296
Salter, B (BSES, 2012)The Sugar Yield Decline Joint Venture concluded that, in order to improve soil health, the sugar industry should break the monoculture using fallow legume crops, adopt controlled traffic and reduce soil cultivation. ... -
Improved sugarcane farming systems : SRDC Final report BSS286
Salter, B; Bell, MJ; Stirling, GR; Garside, AL; Moody, PJ (2010)This project - Improved Sugarcane Farming Systems (BSS286) - was designed to build on the outcomes of phase 1 and 2 or the Sugar Yield Decline Joint Venture (STDJV). Thus its main focus was on issues that had been identified ... -
Nitrogen availability from legume and past fertiliser history : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Salter, B; Kok, E; Skocaj, DM; Schroeder, BL (ASSCT, 2019)It is likely that land-based activities within the Australian sugar industry have a negative effect on the quality of water in the Great Barrier Reef lagoon. Improvements to nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) are likely to ... -
