Pest risk analysis of sugarcane for the Northern Australia Quarantine Strategy - Quarantine insects
(BSES, 1998)The purpose of this pest risk analysis (PRA) is, firstly to identify quarantine pests and pathogens which pose a threat to sugarcane, which may enter Australia through its northern borders into the area covered by AQIS ... -
Pest risk analysis of sugarcane for the Northern Australia Quarantine Strategy
(BSES, 1997)The purpose of this pest risk analysis (PRA) is firstly to identify quarantine pests and pathogens which pose a threat to sugarcane, which may enter Australia through its northern borders into the area covered by the AQIS ... -
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 ... -
A metarhizium-based product for control of cane pests : SRDC final report BSS134
(BSES, 2000)The fungus Metarhizium anisopliae is a naturally occurring pathogen of soil insects in Australia. Metarhizium can be used as a bioinsecticide for control of canegrubs by mass-producing spores on rice and applying the ... -
Analysis of field and factory options for efficient gathering and utilisation of trash from green cane harvesting : SRDC Final report BS157S
(2000)The objectives of this project were: to determine field costs for harvest\transport of cane with varying levels of cleaning by the harvester; to determine similar costs for field to factory transport; to establish the total ... -
Factory scale trials with laser produced stainless steel screens : Bingera mill 1987 season
(BSES, 1987)The main objective in the tests carried out at Bingera was to compare the performance of two adjacent, similar, BMA K1000 centrifugals, one of which was fitted with a new set of standard Cr-Ni screens, and the other with ... -
Chop-throw; a potential driver for the next generation of pneumatic cleaning systems : SRDC Final report BS52S
(2000)The objective of this project was to determine if the chop-throw concept offered potential for high efficiency pneumatic cleaning systems, by virtue of the inherently high efflux velocities and billet presentation from the ... -
Factors influencing populations of Eumargarodes laingi and promargarodes spp. in sugarcane at Bundaberg and derivation of sequential sampling plans
(BSES, 1992)A survey of the margarodids Eumargarodes laingi Jakubski and Promargarodes spp. in sugarcane was carried out at Bundaberg. E. laingi cyst numbers were influenced by soil type; Promargarodes spp. numbers did not differ ... -
Effect of far-red radiation on flowering of saccharum spp. hybrids
(1990)Many tropical sugarcane clones (Saccharum spp. hybrids) are unavailable for hybridization because of poor flowering. Methods are required to improve the flowering of such clones. This study was conducted to determine ... -

Data-base and data handling programs for Plant Data Record
(BSES, 1981)The information contained in the BSES Plant Data Record is stored in computer data-bases for reporting and reference. Data for both the 1979 and 1980 seasons is stored at Bundaberg and reports for each of these years were ... -
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 ... -
Project 921 - rates of biodunder for sugarcane : final report
(1995)The BSES recommendation for a maximum application rate is considered adequate to maximise returns and production for ratoon crops on the majority of Mackay soils. As the experiments were conducted only on ratoon crops, ... -
Evaluation of laser produced stainless steel screens
(BSES, 1987)In an effort to develop a more acceptable alternative to the chrome-nickel screens presently in use, BSES approached the CSIRO Division of Manufacturing Technology in Sydney towards the end of 1985 to ascertain the feasibility ... -
Evaluation of nutrient enriched biodunder for sugarcane : a review
(1995)The review looks at the advantages and disadvantages of fertilising with biodunder\urea compared with applying biodunder and urea separately. The review concludes with 6 recommendations for the use of biodunder\urea\sulfuric ... -
Evaluation of high open area screens
(BSES, 1987)Following the offer from ANI-Sargeants of several sets of high open area screens for testing, trials were arranged at Fairymead and Millaquin Mills, as it has been the contention that higher open areas would allow higher ...
