How much nitrogen will that crop need? Incorporating climate forecasting to improve nitrogen management in the Wet Tropics : Final project 2015/075
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
Determining the optimum amount of nitrogen that is required by the crop to maximise production, profitability and environmental outcomes is a challenging problem. The modelling approach taken in this project has balanced ...
Strategies to manage soil-borne fungi and mitigate sugarcane yield decline : Final report 2013/101
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
Culture–dependent and culture-independent analyses of sugarcane rhizosphere fungal and oomycete communities were conducted across two cropping seasons at two sites. Agronomic treatments included replant continuous cane, ...
Boosting NUE in sugarcane through temporal and spatial management options : Final report 2014/045
(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) ...
Develop a blueprint for the introduction of new processing technologies for Australian factories: final report 2015/043
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
Several overseas factories are using technologies that reduce their process steam consumptions to very low levels, e.g. lower than 32% on cane, which are much lower than achieved by the most steam efficient Australian ...
Securing Australia from PNG biosecurity threats : final report 2015/046
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
Papua New Guinea (PNG) is the centre of diversity for several Saccharum species (S. officinarum, S. edule, S robustum) and supports indigenous pests and diseases of sugarcane. These threaten Australian commercial sugarcane ...
A novel polyphasic framework to resolve Yellow Canopy Syndrome paradox : final report 2014/082
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
A novel polyphasic framework to resolve Yellow Canopy Syndrome paradox.
Molecular assay of major soilborne sugarcane pathogens for better exploitation of commercial varieties : final report 2016/047
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
A commercial assay service, based on specific DNA tests for soil-borne pathogens, has been developed for various cropping industries by the South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI), Adelaide. A unique ...
Developing an alternative herbicide management strategy to replace PSII herbicides in the Wet Tropics area : final report 2014/050
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
A field experiment to evaluate the response of sugarcane varieties to waterlogging
(ASSCT, 2018)
RECENT PRODUCTIVITY REVIEWS in the Herbert and Central regions identified strong
negative correlations between excessive rainfall and productivity. Waterlogging has a
significant effect on sugarcane productivity. It ...
Efficacy and environmental runoff impact of alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied on trash blanketed ratoons
(ASSCT, 2018)
THE EFFICACY OF alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied just after harvest on green trash blanketed ratoons was investigated in three field trials in the wet tropics, Far North Queensland. The study also ...
