Optimising spot spraying for controlling Guinea grass
(Australian Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, 2019)Established Guinea grass stools are commonly found in our sugarcane-farming system. No registered herbicides that are both effective on perennial Guinea grass stools and selective to sugarcane are available. Directed-spray ... -
Combining weed efficacy, economics and environmental considerations for improved herbicide management in the Great Barrier Reef catchment area
(Science of the Total Environment, 2020)The current Australian sugarcane industry transition toward adoption of an ‘alternative’ herbicide strategy as part of improved environmental stewardship is increasingly complicated by recent farming system, regulatory and ... -
Soil-binding adjuvants can reduce herbicide loss via runoff
(Australian Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, 2020)Concentrations of a range of pesticides exceed water-quality guidelines throughout the year in many fresh and estuarine water bodies of the Great Barrier Reef catchment. To mitigate its impact and maintain its productivity, ... -

Efficacy and environmental runoff impact of alternative pre-emergent herbicides to diuron applied on trash blanketed ratoons
(Australian Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, 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 ... -
Can directed-spray strategies control Guinea grass stools?
(Australian Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, 2019)Guinea grass is a troublesome perennial grass in our sugarcane farming system. Despite a range of effective pre-emergent and early post-emergent herbicides, optimum spray windows are often missed and established Guinea ... -
Impact of application depth and slot closure on runoff losses of imidacloprid
(Australian Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, 2020)Imidacloprid represents the Australian sugar industry’s best canegrub-management tool, but it has been detected in many water bodies, including groundwater, creeks, rivers and marine environments, posing a potential risk ... -
