Evaluation of the impact of investment in sugar research and development
(1998)The study undertaken for BSES, SRDC and SRI has established that the investment of resources in RD&E is effected in a manner that is providing significant benefits to the sugar industry. This has been demonstrated through ... -
Evaluation of the impact of the Sugar Research and Development Corporation (SRDC)
(1993)This report presents the results of an evaluation of the impact of the SRC and the SRDC since the formation of the SRC in November 1987. The study was initiated by the SRDC in response to their commitment to undertake an ... -
Evaluation of the Neltec Colour Q for measuring the purity of magma from C centrifugals : final report 2018/201
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2019)In Australian factories one operator typically manages the high grade fugalling, sugar drying and low grade (C) fugalling stations. The C fugals are managed least effectively as there is no process instrumentation to monitor ... -
Evaluation of the sugar industry farm management systems : Farm Management Systems for the Sugarcane Industry, sub-program 5
(2007)This report documents the evaluation of the Sugar Industry FMS project funded by the Commonwealth Department of Agriculture Fisheries and Forestry under the Pathways to Industry Environmental Management Systems (EMS) ... -
Evaporator liquor brix sensor : final report 2017/003
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2019)A Pro-M-tec Ultrasonic Time of Flight (TOF) sensor was installed for trials at Victoria Mill in 2017. The TOF instrument calculates the brix of a liquid using the measurement of temperature and velocity of an ultrasonic ... -
evelopment of a strategy for selection of high-CCS cultivars for high-fertility environments in northern Queensland : SRDC Final report BSS179
(2004)The need to develop a strategy for cultivar development for high-fertility soils present in northern Queensland was driven by industry concerns regarding a declining CCS pattern in years prior to commencement of this ... -
Everything you wanted to know about cane payment but were too afraid to ask - information workshops for female business partners in the sugar industry : final report BSS289
(2007)After a grower shed meeting at a Tableland cane farm, Drewe Burgess from BSES and Mick Ward from Bundaberg Sugar spent quite some time answering questions from the grower?s wife on cane payment, why harvesters cut in rounds, ... -
Expanded registration for Metarhizium strains against canegrubs : SRDC final project report BSS246
(BSES, 2002)Eight fungicides and three liquid insecticides are registered in Queensland for application to sugarcane at planting, and these may come into contact with Metarhizium during application from cane planters. Seven of the ... -
Exploiting Erianthus diversity to enhance sugarcane cultivars : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2019)Introgression of Erianthus arundinaceus into the SRA sugarcane-breeding program has been a goal for researchers for many years. The Erianthus genome was finally accessible to sugarcane breeders with the identification in ... -
Exploiting introgression for the development of productive and regionally adapted varieties for NSW : final report 2013/022
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2020)This project aimed to explore sugar cane variety improvement opportunities available through introgression in relation to 2-year cropping, temperate cane growing conditions of NSW and frosting. It provided an opportunity ... -
Extent of zinc deficiency in cane growing soils of North Queensland.
(1993)Collation and interpretation of soil analysis data has shown a strong relationship between soil type and extractable zinc. Extractable zinc in soils followed the order: metamorphic, beach ridge and granite soils < organic ... -
Facilitate the accessibility of productivity data by sugarcane farm managers through the SUGARSCAPE productivity software application : SRDC Final report BSS248
(2001)Utilising previous research outcomes, a utility was added to the SUGARSCAPE software application to export productivity data and farm map data to common file types. The purpose of this export utility was to provide a ... -
Facilitating enhanced peanut / sugarcane rotations by assessing and managing the issues related to growing peanuts : SRDC Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2008)Rotation cropping has been identified by the Sugar Yield decline Joint Venture (SYDJV) as a critical tool in addressing decline in the Australian sugar industry. Previous research demonstrates that when break crops are ... -
Facilitating the commercialisation of products from GM sugarcane : communications plan
(2007)This project addresses the knowledge gap of how management affects soil biological processes. This is important because management has to maximise soil health and nutrient relations. Knowledge of soil biology in context ... -
Facilitation of best practice to reduce extraneous matter and cane loss : SRDC Final report BSS189
(2002)Green cane harvesting and trash blanketing are important agronomic production techniques in the northern sugar producing areas. Cane losses are accepted to be higher with green cane harvesting and extraneous matter levels ... -
Factors affecting cane farm productivity and profitability in the Bundaberg district
(1993)At the request of the Bundaberg Cane Productivity Committee, the Queensland Department of Primary Industries carried out a study to identify factors affecting the level of sugar yields and reasons for variation in the level ... -
Factors affecting the distribution of the vine species in sugarcane: results of GIS surveys in Central Queensland
(ASSCT, 2015)Extracted from the Proceedings of the Australian Society of Sugar Cane Technology, Volume 37, 2015. -
Factors affecting the incidence of and damage caused by weevil borers : SRDC final report BS151S
(BSES, 1998)This study has shown that sampling billets for weevil borer damage through the extraneous matter system of a sugar mill gives reliable data as it supports in field data collected by BSES. These data may allow the simple ... -
Factors affecting the sugar content of sugar cane in the wet tropics of Queensland: statistical analysis of ccs data at Babinda and Tully
(BSES, 1972)In the wet tropics, the sugar content of crops is usually below the state's average and is a critical factor in farm economy, particularly during years of low sugar prices. This aspect of sugar production has been the ... -
