Climate forecasting to improve nitrogen management in the Wet Tropics
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)SRA researcher Danielle Skocaj's PhD thesis investigated the impact of climatic conditions on Tully sugarcane yields and nitrogen fertiliser requirements. She found that climate forecasting can be used to predict N ... -
Modelling extreme yields in the Wet Tropics to improve nitrogen use efficiency : Final report 2014/024
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015)The Wet Tropics experiences one of the highest levels of climate variability in the world. These enormous swings in inter-annual climate patterns cause large fluctuations in crop size, and hence, how much nitrogen should ... -
Monitoring cane at the mill to improve nitrogen management on the farm : final report CTA029
(SRDC, 2002)The project originally had a third objective, namely to “Develop promising leads in rapid and cost effective analyses of N compounds in the mill juice stream to a “proof-of-concept” stage.” Instrumentation issues and ... -
Review of nitrogen fertiliser research in the Australian sugar industry
(2004)The management of nitrogen (N) fertiliser is important to the Australian sugar industry, as it is an important nutrient for sugarcane production. However, over application results in reduced profitability and sugar quality, ... -
A review of nitrogen use efficiency in sugarcane
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2014)The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is the world’s largest coral reef ecosystem, providing both substantial economic benefit to Australia and significant international ecological value. The health of the GBR is under pressure ... -
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, ...
