Getting rid of the crop post‐harvest can be difficult and resource intensive, however it really is the first step in terms of best practice for your future cotton crops.

Monitoring of soil and plant nutrient status is a fundamental requirement in managing soil fertility and meeting the nutritional demands of the crop. Soil; Analysis, Petiole analysis, Leaf analysis Interpretation

Prevention is better than cure! - It is better to prevent the introduction of a disease, weed or pestthan to try and control it after it has been introduced and become widespread. A number of disease and weed problems are currently limited to particular regions or farms within regions.

Leaf analysis provides information about the nutritional status of a crop and can be used to identify nutrient imbalances, deficiencies and toxicities.Sampling,Timing,Handling and packing,Lab selection Interpretation

For better management decisions, it is important to know about mirid biology, particularly their life cycle, and toidentify the mirids correctly so that the right assessment can be made before spraying. this shows pictorially the differences between species

It is a cotton BMP requirement that water sources be tested for pH, salinity risks (electrical conductivity), and sodicity risks (sodium adsorption ratio). Soils need to be tested for salinity risks (electrical conductivity) and sodicity risks (exchangeable sodium percentage). Critical values

Sampling methodologies and locations affect Interpretation of soil and plant analysisCorrect storage of samples before analysis is importantWeather is an important factor in petiole and leaf tissue sampling Petiole test calibrations for nitrate and potassiumMicro nutrients most accurately assessed with leaf blade samples
