In this project the performance of 40 centre pivot and lateral move overhead irrigation systems will be continuously monitored throughout the 2014-15 cropping year to ascertain the performance of the systems and colle

In Australia we have a proud tradition of extension and adoption within primary industries.

The International Congress of Entomology (ICE) is held every four years in different countries in the world.

Egg collecting has been critical to the success of the Helicoverpa resistance monitoring programs.

The potential contribution of surface and ground water to overall nitrous oxide emissions from irrigated production systems has not yet been quantified.

Within the national framework for biosecurity, all commonwealth and state governments and plant industries who are signatories to the Emergency Plant Pest Response Deed (EPPRD) formally commit to preparations that inc

The introduction of transgenic cotton within the cotton industry has allowed for increased yields due to

decreased losses from insect activities. The main pests which have been targeted through the genetic

Over the past 25 years soil carbon sequestration has been assessed in many experiments.

UNE 1501 – ‘ Phosphorus availability in raingrown cotton’, was conducted at ‘Colonsay’, via Brookstead, on the Darling Downs in Queensland, at a long term nutrition site, owned and maintained by Incitec Pivot for 30 y

The industry is entering a critical period in managing resistance to Bt-cotton.

The Burdekin region of coastal north Queensland and other areas of tropical Australia provide a significant opportunity for Australian cotton industry stabilisation and contribution to drought proofing.

This research project acts as a pilot study and involved four trials in the Riverina region of New South Wales comparing establishment, growth rates, plant maturity and yield between cotton crops grown under plastic a

The cotton plant derived a large proportion of N nutrition from the soil organic pool (up to 70%) which is composed of N sourced from previous fertiliser application and the soil N pool that has built up over the mill

This report presents the key outcomes of a collaborative research study between NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) and Cotton Research and Development Corporation (CRDC).

The glass transition temperature (Tg) is the thermal transition at which point a polymer goes from a firm glassy state to a more pliable form.

In recent years, the high level of activity required on-farm for cotton growers has resulted in a lack of time to network, both within the Dawson Valley and with growers and contacts outside the Valley.

The development of farming machinery and digital technology that is able to generate objective information about the status of the soil, water, crops, pasture and animals is quickly changing the way in which farming b

For sustainable cotton production, Australian cotton farming systems need to promote and optimize soil biological functions to by improving nutrient use efficiency, increasing biological nitrogen inputs, reducing dise

Automating surface irrigation systems can deliver both improved efficiencies in labor and water use.

The objective of this project was to further investigate the relationship between cotton cellulose’s crystalline structure and the fibre’s tensile properties, as affected by chemical, genetic and/or environmental effe
