Rapid customisation is a way of creating physical products directly from digital design files through computer-controlled manufacturing.

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

The project successfully captured interactions between cultivar (genetic) x season (environment) x field management x post processing (ginning) variables.

This project relates to management of the following programme items for CRDC: Inside Cotton is a complete online historical record library of all information relating to research and industry. representing.

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.

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

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

CottonInfo’s cotton nutrition

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

across five cotton growing valleys.

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

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,

Deficit (VPD)) and reduced water availability as a consequence of climate change is likely to

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

The cotton sector is a leader in farm WHS because growers have used evidence-based information to develop practical and effective systems to manage WHS.

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.

The phosphorus dynamics of dryland cotton production require further elucidation, particularly the role of residual fertiliser P and mycorrhizal infection in yield.

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 majority of Australia’s cotton producing soil is grey or black vertosols which have high clay content and are naturally prone to waterlogging following heavy rain or surface irrigation.

A number of research trials have been planned for the 2016/17 season which require an effective and accurate measurement of yield soon after harvest.

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.
