The two year project to develop a management assistance package for optimising harvester/infield transport productivity was completed during 1997.
Restoring efficiency to harvested cane transport in New South Wales : SRDC Final report
(2009)
The New South Wales sugar industry has transported mechanically harvested burned cane to its three mills using a multilift bulk bin system since 1974. The transport has been both efficient and cost effective, until the ...
Adapting soybean for profitable rotations in sugarcane farming systems : SRDC Final report
(2005)
Cropping of soybean has been shown by the yield decline joint venture to increase the yield of the following sugar crop by 15 to 30 percent. One impediment to the increase of soybean in sugarcane production systems is that ...
Understanding the effect of harvester speed on subsequent ratoon performance in the Burdekin : Final report 2014/092
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)
In 2014 six harvester speed trials were established in the Burdekin to investigate the effect of harvester speed
on crop yields and subsequent ratooning, and the economics associated with harvesting at different ...
Improving the yields of ratoon crops of sugarcane : SRDC Final report BS7S (AMENDED)
(1993)
The economics of sugarcane growing improve with the number of ratoon crops which can be grown from a single planting. In Australia, declining yields with increase in the number of ratoons limit a cycle to three to five ...
