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, ... -
Sugar Research & Development Corporation final report Pesticide transport in sugar production systems
(2000)The fate and persistence of a number of the key pesticides used in Australian sugar production have now been quantified for a range of soil types and conditions, In general there is no evidence of season-to-season build ... -
Sugar Research and Development Corporation final report Increasing sugar cane yields by improvements in soil structure
(1998)A project to increase sugar cane yields by improvements in soil structure was conducted at Broadwater, NSW. It was instigated in response to the poor physical structure of many cane soils and poor root development in many ... -
Sugar Research and Development Corporation final report Project CTA013 Spatial analysis of the impact of land use on nutrient loads within the Herbert River Catchment
(1998)This Project arose out of concerns for the apparent increase in nutrient and sediment contaminant loads in Queensland coastal waters since European settlement (e.g. DEAP Report, 1992). At the time of Project inception, the ... -
Technical Report - Evaluation of a Roving Capacitance Probe for Measuring Soil Moisture
(1998)In the Proserpine area of central Queensland, Australia, trials were conducted to evaluate the performance of a proving capacitance probe for determining soil moisture. Soil moisture was monitored using both a neutron ... -
The effect of soil physical properties on growth and yield of sugarcane
(1991)The literature reporting the effect of soil physical properties on sugarcane growth and yield has been reviewed and areas for further investigation are suggested. There is conflicting evidence in relation to the number ... -
The effect of zinc deficiency as a factor limiting sugarcane growth (SRC Project BS14S - Final Report)
(1990)Results from this project confirm that substantial yield responses to zinc application can be expected in deficient soils in North Queensland. Deficiency is commonly associated with lime application. Three soil and two ... -
The physiological and growth response of sugarcane to the sodium absorption ratio in flowing solution sand culture
(1994)The growth of sugarcane variety Q117 in sand culture using nutrient solutions with sodium absorption ratios of 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30, each with a constant electrical conductivity of 1.5 dS/m was determined under glasshouse ...
