A review of nitrogen use efficiency in sugarcane
Bell, MJ; Biggs, J; McKellar, LB; Connellan, J; Di Bella, L; Dwyer, R; Empson, M; Garside, AJ; Harvey, T; Kraak, J; Lakshmanan, P; Lamb, DW; Meier, E; Moody, P; Muster, T; Palmer, J; Robinson, N; Robson, A; Salter, B; Schroeder, B; Silburn, M; Schmidt, S; Skocaj, DM; Stacey, S; Stanley, J; Thorburn, P; Verburg, K; Walker, C; Wang, W; Wood, A (2015)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 ... -
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 ... -
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) ... -
Does ratoon age impact on N-fertiliser requirements in the Wet Tropics? : ASSCT poster paper
Skocaj, DM; Schroeder, BL; Park, G; Hurney, AP (ASSCT, 2019) -
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) -
Effect of long-term application of potassium on sugarcane and soil properties in the Herbert River district : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Park, G; Schroeder, BL; Wood, AW; Skocaj, DM (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 ... -
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 ... -
Productivity performance of climatological sub-regions within the Tully Mill area : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Stringer, JK; Skocaj, DM; Rigby, A; Olayemi, M; Everingha, YL; Sexton, J (ASSCT, 2019)Inter-annual climate variability has a significant impact on productivity in the Wet Tropics region. Climate also varies spatially, yet the impact on productivity is less well known. Two distinct climatological sub-regions ... -
Spatial distribution of potential soil constraints affecting nitrogen management in the Wet Tropics : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
Skocaj, DM; Schroeder, BL; Hurney, AP; Rigby, A; Telford, D (ASSCT, 2019)Position in the landscape and climatic conditions experienced during the growing season, especially following the application of nitrogen (N) fertiliser, has important implications for crop growth, N uptake and N losses. ...
