To determine the rate of nitrogen reduction possible on a plant cane crop following a soybean fallow affected by severe flooding.

To determine the rate of nitrogen reduction possible on a plant cane crop following a soybean fallow affected by severe flooding.

To evaluate the application of reduced nutrients on old ratoons, with a low yield potential, that will be ploughed out.

To investigate the effect of variable rate nutrient applications based upon zone crop yield potential.

To investigate the effect of harvester speed on subsequent cane yields and nitrogen use efficiency.

To reduce the amount of Nitrogen and Phosphorus applied to varieties that have high nitrogen use efficiency without suffering a yield or sugar reduction.

To compare the application of liquid fertilisers sub-surface against sub-surface application of liquid fertilisers at lower rates.

To determine the rate of nitrogen reduction possible on a plant cane crop following a soybean fallow affected by severe flooding.

To reduce the amount of Nitrogen and Phosphorus applied to varieties that have high nitrogen use efficiency without suffering a yield or sugar reduction.

To use crop sensors to spatially locate variations in soybean yield and to create nitrogen application maps to match the variability without having a negative impact on sugarcane yield.

To evaluate and demonstrate the opportunity to apply variable rate application of Balance herbicide to different soil types within a field.
