Norman J. King, Director of the Bureau of Sugar Experiment Stations, Queensland, along with Assistant Director R. W. Mungomery and Senior Pathologist C. G. Hughes, presents a comprehensive, authoritative compendium that instructs growers, agronomists, and researchers on every critical aspect of the sugarcane industry — from soil preparation and variety selection to pest management and disease control. Published as part of the respected Australian Agricultural and Livestock Series by Angus and Robertson, this volume stands as an indispensable reference for both the working farmer and the agricultural scientist seeking to maximise yield and sustainability in tropical and subtropical conditions.\n\nThe work reflects the rigorous scientific standards of mid-20th-century Australian agronomy, drawing on decades of field research and experiment station data to deliver practical, evidence-based guidance. Its meticulous detail and authoritative tone illustrate the immense institutional knowledge possessed by its authors, making it not merely a manual but a landmark contribution to the literature of Australian primary industry. For anyone serious about the science and practice of sugarcane production, this remains an essential text that rewards careful study.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49342772347099,"sku":"2026200015983-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/8d681143-3306-4a06-a98f-09be94f8495b.png?v=1790048996","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200015983-secondhand-manual-of-cane-growing","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
