Adding local information to variety management
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)The Tully region is working together to assess new varieties in a range of conditions, to help the local industry improve variety management decisions. -
Assessment of new soft cane varieties : final report 2015/081
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)The project objectives were to: experimentally determine whether extraneous matter affects the fibre quality parameters measured by SRA; experimentally determine whether the commercial cane preparation process affects the ... -
Breeding clones with high early sugar content : SRDC final report BSS93
(2002)The project BSS25 ?Breeding of clones with high early sugar content? concluded that the potential for increasing CCS through breeding and selection was greatest early in the season. BSS25 commenced a recurrent selection ... -
Eye in the sky to help modernise sugarcane plant breeding
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)Cutting-edge technology is being used to assess how potential new sugarcane varieties perform through the growing cycle, with the aim of delivering better varieties sooner for the Australian sugarcane industry. -
Improving the ratooning ability of sugarcane : SRDC Final report BS100S
(1996)Good ratooning cultivars has attributes of rapdi canopy development, associated with early development of adequate stalk numbers, for increased interception of light in early growth, an stability of harvested stalk weight ... -
Information sheet : Best-practice nutrient management
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2022)Modification of the traditional nutrient management guidelines for sugarcane production in Australia has been in progress for the past 10 years. The need for change occurred with a realisation that nutrient management ... -
Maximising whole-of-industry benefits from the Australian sugarcane improvement program through an optimal genetic evaluation system
(2007)An optimal genetic evaluation system (GES) is the backbone of any breeding program because maximising genetic gains is primarily a matter of efficient selection. A GES provides information to breeders about which individuals ... -
Optimisation of experimental design and analysis for variety trials to maximise genetic gain : SRDC final report UQ023
(2001)The analysis of field experimental data usually assumes independent observations. This method is often inappropriate if the data contain strong spatial trends. Methods of analysis (commonly used in cereal trials) which ... -
Optimising CCS at harvest
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)Farm management decisions for maximising profit don't always mean spending extra money. -
Optimum selection strategies in original seedlings particularly for heavily lodged crops : SRDC final report BS46S
(1999)The objectives for this project were: to evaluate the effectiveness of family selection in the plant crop of original seedlings of sugarcane grown to full crop potential in the Burdekin region. The crop will probably be ... -
Positive performance sets 2016 as a year to remember
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)The 2016 season is shaping up as positive for sugarcane grower Bruce Davies. Bruce Davies started his farming career in 1993, and in those 23 years of farming he can't recall many years like 2016 when good yields have lined ... -
Selecting clones for better ratooning under wet harvesting conditions : SRDC final report CSR10S
(1997)There were three broad aims of this project: (i) To develop and evaluate a method for screening genetic material under conditions where there is (a) stool damage from harvesting machinery under wet conditions, and (b) ... -
Solid yields and sugar for Rocky Point growers
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2016)Two good crops in 2015 and 2016 are showing the performance of sugarcane varieties for Rocky Point cane growers, although the region has had challenges in harvesting the crop -
The inheritance of ash in juice from sugar cane
(1983)Ash per cent juice data were obtained for varieties within 97 crosses in original seedlings in 1979 and for varieties within 86 crosses from three factorial polycrosses in 1981, on the Bundaberg Sugar Experiment Station. ... -
