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 ...
Genotype selection and management strategies for exploitation of responses to high planting densities : SRDC final report BS137S
(1999)
The objectives of this project were to: evaluate the potential for high density planting (close row spacings) to increase yields over a range of conditions; assess the genetic potential available to exploit higher planting ...
Map-based chromosome and trait tagging in sugarcane using cytological and RFLP markers
(1999)
Sugarcane is a complex aneuploid, polyploid, interspecific hybrid. At the time that this project began, molecular mapping in sugarcane was in its infancy and was only being attempted in interspecific crosses or within the ...
Development of an Educational Package for Canegrowers on Efficient Nutrient Management : final report BSS204
(1999)
The aim of this project was to facilitate responsible nutrient management for the sugar industry by providing extension support in the form of a training course for canegrowers. This educational package will enable growers ...
Enhanced Productivity Information to Improve Extension Programs and Research Data : final report BS128S
(1997)
A project was undertaken to extend previously available productivity software tools. Using the end product of a previous project as a prototype, a new application was recreated in a different programming language. The ...
Evaluate sugar beet for potential to produce sugar at Mackay Sugar Experiment Stations : final report TE93005
(BSES, 1993)
Can sugar beet be profitably grown at Mackay? Sugar yields from beets are continuing to increase in overseas countries. Results from experiments at Kalamia Estate in the Burdekin area indicated that sugar beet out-yielded ...
Crop investigation into grain; legume crops suitable for incorporation into a cane rotation : SRDC final report CG009
(SRDC, 1998)
Funding was obtained from the Australian Government Sugar Research and
Development Corporation (SRDC) to undertake a feasibility study into
opportunities for grain and legume crop industries in the coastal sugar ...
Constituents of non-sugar products of sugarcane : SRDC final report BS85S
(BSES, 1993)
Residues of selected pesticides were measured in samples of bagasse, filter mud and
molasses from six sugar mills, in samples of dunder from two distilleries, and in cane
tops and soil from four canegrowing areas of ...
Soil constraints to productivity improvement
(1991)
Evidence from investigations into fumigation, fungicide application, fallowing and growth of sugarcane on recently cultivated soils strongly suggests that yields in established cane growing areas are being restricted by ...
Optimum plot shape for variety trials - effect of competition between varieties : Final report 39905083
(1991)
Four plot shapes were compared using four replications of 60 clones. The shapes were 4-row long (4L), 4-row short (4S), 2-row long (2L) and 1-row long (1L). The standard length of 9.2m was used for long plots, short plots ...
