- Summary:
-
The sugarcane industry has been identified as a major contributor to declining water quality entering the Great Barrier Reef lagoon. The aim of this project was to determine nitrogen losses in a Wet Tropics sugarcane crop using varying rates and forms of nitrogen fertiliser. In particular, this project trialled a range of nitrogen application rates using the SIX EASY STEPS framework and standard urea fertiliser, as well as a controlled release nitrogen product.
