 <\/p>\n

The Innovative Nitrogen Use in Sugarcane Forum was about highlighting the work and research done on nitrogen which has a focus on sugarcane productivity, profitability and reef water quality.<\/span><\/p>\n

The aim was to provide insightful discussion based on research being undertaken on the paddock, catchment, and reef. The forum included growers, scientists and industry in discussion and debate, with a focus on creative and collaborative problem solving. Outcomes are action focused which can support the Great Barrier Reef and sugarcane growers as these growers have \u201cthe skin in the game\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Sugar Research Australia (SRA) and CANEGROWERS component of the program brought together the last 5 years of work, spanning from the debate in 2013 on nitrogen and block yield potential, the 2014 nitrogen workshop in Townsville, to the culmination of a nitrogen roadmap and the SIX EASY STEPS toolbox.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The program also included presentations on recent Reef Science that further expands our knowledge of nitrogen\u2019s effect on coral reef ecosystems, including the crown-of-thorns starfish and seagrass ecosystems. Presentations included research updates on nutrient management planning, Enhanced Efficiency Fertilisers, climate forecasting, catchment monitoring, crop breeding, processes to capture nitrogen on farm, market-based instruments to manage risk and behavioural science to enable change.<\/span><\/p>\n
