Evaluating the potential for improved sugar yields by assessing the climatic and soil constraints to production in southern cane-growing districts
(1999)
This project conducted strategic research to better understand the processes of yield accumulation in low temperature NSW environments and to identify limits to yield. The fundamental knowledge gained in this project can ...
SRDC Final Report - Project BS142S: Economic cost of soil compaction
(1999)
Objectives of this project were: Adapt a Scandinavian model to determine the effect of soil compaction on crop yield for the Australian sugar industry; Relate crop response to degree of compactness by examining current and ...
Final report on SRDC project CLW002 (previously CSS02 & CSS2S): The role of root growth and activity in determining sugarcane productivity
(1999)
When the current project was initiated, poor root growth and activity were widely believed to be a major constraint to sugarcane productivity. However, there was no technology available to assess whether or not root growth ...
Identification of acid sulfate soils using a field peroxide pH test
(1999)
This science project was conducted as part of Year 12 Chemistry to provide an assessment of the presence of acid sulfate soils on an Ingham property. The results will determine the extent of acid sulfate soil existence ...
