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) ...
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 ...
Regenerating a soil food web capable of improving soil health and reducing losses from soil borne pests and pathogens of sugarcane : final report 2014/004
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)
When the Sugar Yield Decline Joint Venture concluded in 2006, its main legacy was a new sugarcane farming system based on legume breaks, minimum tillage, controlled traffic and trash retention. Many economic benefits were ...
