Nut growth was higher at 25-30C and kernel growth was reflected in higher kernel recovery. Oil accumulation was most rapid at 25C. At high temperatures, kernel weight actually declined. Extreme temperatures at later stages of nut development adversely affect kernel quality.

Dr Danielle Le Lagadec from the Bundaberg Research Facility explains how AVG affects macadamia trees and how cincturing induces them to flower and set nuts. Scott Allcott, the manager of Macadamia Farm Management, has been trialling cincturing for 5 years and he demonstrates how to cincture trees and discusses the results and costs involved.

A research project was designed to assess the trunk girdling as a way of producing more crop on young trees (MC13014, Macadamia propagation and precocity). The research tested the effect of trunk girdling on 3- and 4-year-old trees in an orchard near Knockrow in the Northern Rivers, with promising results.

Summary of the results of a 3-year project to assess the potential for and benefits of measuring total non-structural carbohydrate (TNSC) in macadamias as a way of improving crop yields.
2017 | Vimpany I | Research report/Update
Trees in orchards in Bundaberg and Northern Rivers were sequential samples for levels of total nonstructural carbohydrate in an attempt to explain cropping behaviour.

A final report on project (MC15007), Still Wild about Macadamias - conserving a national icon, has just been released. The report details the successful completion of the project, whose objectives were to:
• improve understanding and management of the threats to wild macadamia trees
• promote and drive the protection and conservation of threatened wild populations
• help protect other rainforest flora and fauna, including several threatened species and ecosystems.
