Past Trials

To compare between a variable rate of Gypsum that targets sodic zones within the block to a conventional practice of 2t/ha across the whole block.

To reduce chemical cost and nutrient loss to water runoff. To improve soil health and farm management.

To improve cane yield and soil health focusing on pH levels & aluminium saturation

To improve soil health and gain sugarcane yield

To reduce chemical cost and nutrient loss to water runoff. To improve soil health and farm management

This project aims to investigate the effects of irrigating cane in an alternating fashion and assess any positive or negative yield increases or decreases, as well as analyse the costs associated with the change in irrigation practice.

This project aims develop a low cost wirelesss moisture sensor that can be installed in the middle of a canefield and transmit wirelessly back to a basestation which will then display values on a website.

This project aims to investigate different Nitrogen rates to determine the Nitrogen Use efficiency of some of the newer varieties in the Burdekin

To investigate the potential of the Twin N product in reducing the amount of fertiliser required for Sugarcane production

The aim of this trial is to compare the water quality and yield from 3 different fertiliser application methods.

To compare yield results when Nitrogen rates are reduced in plant cane, following mungbean crops
