Research determining soil and water losses from sugarcane lands has helped us to set field recommendations for Land Use Plans. A nomograph is used to determine panel spacings and field management practices for both gentle and steep slopes. The application of the method to farms with a wide range of soil types and slopes is discussed. A field design and management plan is detailed. Methods to assess possible productivity improvements are described with special reference to cane haulage for three farms producing about 18,000 t per year. Implementation of the Land Use Plan is discussed, using existing field records to determine priority areas.
