Item Diseases of Australian sugarcane field guide(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2019) Magarey, RThis guide has been designed for practical 'in-field' use. Text is kept to a minimum and symbols are used to convey information.Item Weed management manual(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2021)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 record keeping, environmental considerations, and herbicide resistance. It provides indicative cost estimates of various weed control measures.Item Australian sugarcane nutrition manual(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018) Calcino, D; Schroeder, B; Panitz, J; Hurney, A; Skocaj, D; Wood, A; Salter, BOn-farm nutrient management has a key role in farm and industry sustainability, and in ensuring minimal off-site impacts occur.Item A guide to characterising Australian sugarcane soils(CRC, 2003) Eldridge, SMThe purpose of this book is to help those who are variously responsible for developing, promulgating or implementing advice on how to best manage sugar soils in an agronomic context. In particular, it emphasises the importance of detailed knowledge of soils and describes how to select a research site and characterise a soil. The book provides contemporary understanding of the main soils of the sugar industry, how to recognise them and their key properties, how they behave, and how they should be managed. CRC Sugar is proud to have been able to sponsor the development of the book. We trust that it will prove a valuable resource for those whose task it is to ensure a healthy and sustainable future for the soils of the sugar lands.Item Weed management in sugarcane manual(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017) Ross, P; Fillols, EThis 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 record keeping, environmental considerations, and herbicide resistance. It provides indicative cost estimates of various weed control measures.Item Best-practice surface drainage for low-lying sugarcane lands Herbert District(BSES, 2006) Reghenzani, JR; Roth, CRA manual for extensionists and practitioners.Item The history of cane pest and disease control boards in Queensland(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015) Egan, BPESTS AND DISEASES have been major factors in canegrowing in Australia from at least the 1870s, when both canegrubs and a disease called ‘rust’ began to attack cane. Control measures against canegrubs were urgently required by the early 1890s, and one far-sighted Mackay man began to campaign for the only possible method available at that time.Item The standard laboratory manual for Australian sugar mills(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2014)These methods have been developed over time to suit the conditions and circumstances of the Australian Sugar Industry. Where applicable, the methods have been developed along existing ICUMSA guidelines and include lists of relevant source material.Item Soil-specific nutrient management guidelines for sugarcane production in the Bundaberg District(BSES, 2007) Schroeder, B; Panitz, J; Wood, A; Moody, P; Salter, BIn 2003 and 2006 soil reference booklets for the Herbert and Proserpine districts respectively, entitled Soil Specific Management Guidelines for Sugarcane Production were produced for cane growers. Those booklets described the basic principles of soil management and presented nutrient guidelines for a range of soils. We are now in the position to present a similar booklet aimed at soil-specific nutrient management in the Bundaberg district. This is based on a methodology developed within an SRDC-funded project (Improved nutrient management in the Australian sugar industry) and research conducted in the area as part of an Envirofund project (Improved adoption of best-practice nutrient management: Bundaberg Sugar Industry).Item Pests of Australian sugarcane field guide(BSES, 2015) Samson, P; Sallam, N; Chandler, KThis guide has been designed for practical ‘in-field’ use and text has been kept to a minimum.
