This travel sponsorship enable two researchers to attend and present research outcomes from Australia relevant to other parts of the world at the International Congress of Entomology in Orlando and to inform ourselves

This project supports the CRDC Workforce Capacity theme. 10 CRDC-sponsored Horizon Scholarship recipients to attend the 2016 Australian Cotton Conference on the Gold Coast (conference and dinner tickets).

This research sought to determine why differences in dye uptake may occur between cottons with near identical fibre properties.

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

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

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

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

This Travel sponsorship suuported Dr Sharwood to travel to Lubbock Texas USA to meet with Dr Paxton Payton and Dr James Mahan at the USDA-ARS to begin collaborative research to determine the interactive effects of wat

CottonInfo’s cotton nutrition

tour hit the road in February 2016, bringing 10 leading cotton nutrition researchers onto farms

across five cotton growing valleys.

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

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

CRDC recognises that people are the cotton industry’s greatest resource. We continue to invest

in the capacity and capability of people through many programs, designed to build a skilled,

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

A warmer and drier climate has been projected in Australia especially for the inner part of Australia (CSIRO, 2007) which covers the cotton production regions.

Over the last 22 years the Australian cotton industry, through the CRDC and Cotton CRC, have actively invested in the dissemination of research information to growers and the broader community.

Management of soil organic carbon (SOC) is necessary for sustainable agricultural development.

In response to many inquiries about EM38 technology, either from those who came to an industry field day (as part of the Irrigation Technology Tour Feb 2015) or who have spoken with someone else who attended, Departme

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 travel scholarship provided funded for the researcher to present the major findings from the researchers PhD to the European Conference on Sustainability, Energy & the Environment 2015.

Deep drainage varies considerably depending on soil properties and irrigation management, and is not necessarily ‘very small’ - 50-100 mm/yr is typical, though 0 to 900 mm/yr has been observed.
