This project resolved two long-standing anomalies regarding Cry2Ab resistance in H. armigera.

Ginning is an energy intensive process. This project evaluates the energy usage inside the cotton gins in Australia. electricity use is found to range between 44-66 kWh per bale, with national average being 52.3 kWh.

Silverleaf whitefly (SLW), Bemisia tabaci B biotype (Gennadius), is a major insect pest of cotton and horticultural industries.

This project used a series of communication processes to structure an engagement strategy between CRDC and Crop Consultants Australia or CCA and the wider cotton industry R&D organisations.

is a limiting factor for cotton production in Australia. As a soil-borne fungal pathogen, epidemiological, ecological and genetic features of Fov populations are strongly influenced by soil conditions.

H. armigera is one of the major pests faced by the Australian cotton industry.

Quarantine plays a critical role to ensure that Australia remains free from serious pests, weeds and diseases present in other parts of the world.

The Cotton export market is highly competitive and when it comes to quality Australia needs to be the world's best.

This project aimed to identify means to improve nutrient use‐efficiency in Australian

cotton production systems and to improve soil health/fertility. The NutriLOGIC DSS

Diminishing water supply, changing weather patterns and pressure to enhance environmental flows are making it imperative to optimise water use efficiency (WUE) on cotton/grain farming systems.

The purpose of my visit was to attend the conference in Auckland New Zealand.

The regional extension positions were part of the Cotton CRC National Cotton Extension Team which has worked on an industry-wide scale to take a knowledge management approach to deliver grower focused, participatory a

This project aimed to identify means to improve nutrient use-efficiency in Australian cotton production systems and to improve soil health/fertility.

I. To evaluate the risk of Q-biotype whitefly for Australia: Q-biotype identifications in Australia have not been verified by other methods or researchers.

The primary aim of this project has been to benchmark greenhouse gas emissions across the cotton industry and develop guidelines which potentially reduce nitrous oxide, and associated non-global warming nitrogen gases

This project has tackled the scientific challenge of predicting the key parameters of interest to the spinning mill manager from fibre quality measurements.

As a by product of more valuable cotton fibre, cottonseed oil (CSO) in its current form is widely used in its current form in various food applications around the world.

This report presents the experimental work and outcomes of the project that commenced in 2006 and was completed on 30 June 2010 (03DAN001).

The intention of this report is to provide the Australian Cotton Industry with information on the performance of the 2008 crop in regard to content and short fibre content as tested by the AFIS PRO instrument, finenes
