The main aim of this project was to develop a low-cost multispectral airborne video imaging system (referred to as MAVIS) for detecting and monitoring spatial and temporal variations in the vigour of irrigated cotton
Aims: (i) to quantify the contribution of alternative host crops to the dynamics of Heliothis on cotton using an elemental analysis technique developed in a previous project.
Trowell, S. (1991-06-01)
To quantify movement of Heliothis adults Into cotton crops from local and distant source regions.

The objective of this project was to look at economic optimisation within the SIRATAC framework.
Kirby, J.M. (1991-06-30)
I was invited to speak at the conference to give a paper at one of the sessions.
This project was initiated under the name "CS66L - SIRATAC Plus configuration and testing". However, the Siratac Plus project proved a failure and all development was abandoned in 1990.
Shaw, A.J. (1991-06-30)
The first Queensland soil management training workshop was held in July 1991 at Dalby. Funding came from the Cotton Research and Development Corporation and the National Soil Conservation Program.
Reid, P.E. (1991-06-30)
During August 1990, in company with Dr Norm Thomson, Mr Reid visited a number of research institution and companies form California to Mississippi.
Constable, G. A. (1991-07-30)
This visit was made to study recent research. The topics of most interest were crop nutrition, mycorrhizae, growth regulators, row spacing and breeding.

The main aim of this trip was to accept an invitation from the British Society of Chemical Industry to deliver a paper at their 'Resistance 91' international symposium.
Trowell, S (1991-09-30)
SUMMARY We have generated an antibody which is absolutely specific for H. armigera over H. punctigera. Specificity has been demonstrated in a number of ways. For example, the antigenic protein from H.
