Final report SRDC project BSS197 : Products and mechanisms for the amelioration of sodic soils
(2005)
This project set out to examine a number of issues associated with sodic soils. These included: 1) the impact of soil sodicity on crop production; 2) the reduction of adverse impacts of soil sodicity through irrigation ...
A review of nitrogen use efficiency in sugarcane
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2014)
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 ...
Improvement of internal soil drainage and yield on heavy clay soils in the Herbert.
(2015)
The Herbert consists of large areas of clay soils being approximately 60% of soils being sugarcane farmed within the region. These soils are usually nutritionally fertile; however yield potential is limited due to waterlogging. ...
Report on evaluation of nutrient enhancement of biodunder for cane growth
(1992)
Three yield trials were conducted to evaluate strategies for the use of biodunder as a fertiliser for sugarcane. Cane growth in the trials was adversely affected by the weather, which was dry in summer, followed by ...
Role of controlled release fertilizer in Australian sugarcane systems: final report 2014/011
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)
Controlled release fertilisers (CRFs) are promoted as a means to optimise the productivity achieved per unit of fertiliser nitrogen (N) input and lower environmental impacts from N leaching, runoff and emission losses. ...
SRDC Research Project final report Development of a constructed wetland for improving water quality in sugarcane drainage, and ensuring its community acceptance and industry adoption
(2007)
Canefield drainage water quality is an increasingly important issue for the industry and community because of the potential downstream environmental impacts of contained contaminants. The community is increasingly ...
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) ...
Writing for results : a practical workshop
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 1991)
Our Writing for Results Workshop was designed as a follow-up to
the workshop held in Mackay September 1991. In it we looked at the writing of
project proposals in more detail and sharpened our skills in preparing
informative, ...
The next step for Precision Agriculture : SRA Grower Group Innovation Project final report
(2009)
Growers in the Homebush Innovative Growers Group are well aware of the within-paddock variability that occurs within paddocks. The adoption of electrical conductivity (EC) soil mapping technology verified the patterns of ...
