Information about farming practices used in cotton production, yields obtained and fibre quality are

of enormous value in planning research and extension efforts, in industry activities and in telling the

Drs Robert Mensah and Lewis Wilson were invited by on the Organising Committee of the

International Congress of Entomology Conference to organise a symposium on the

WATERpak is the Australian Cotton Industry’s Compendium of water and irrigation research. Its production was funded by the Cotton Research and Development Corporation and it was first released in August 2004.

"When schools, families & community groups work together to support learning, children tend to do better in school, stay in school longer & like school more" (Henderson & Mapp, 2002)

Human Capacity Assessment and Benchmarking project funded by the Cotton Research and Development Corporation through the Human Capacity program has resulted in the development and delivery of the Cotton Industry Skill

The Central Queensland cotton production system is a highly variable tropical climate which is heavily influenced by tropical storms and weather patterns.

A pilot project was initiated to employ four Aboriginal trainees to work on cotton farms in the Narrabri district.

The project has developed three practising certified myBMP auditors. There are currently no growers waiting for a certification audit.

Building growers capacity to adopt and adapt innovation ensures the outputs of research have the greatest impact.

This project sought to create a forum which brings together all levels of the cotton industry

in the Macquarie Valley and from across all geographical areas of the valley, giving a

The objectives of this project were to compare results from Uster Technologies IntelliGin system, an in-line leaf, colour and moisture monitor for cotton ginning, with leaf and colour grade results from the standard H

Cotton is a relatively new irrigated crop in Southern NSW and has proven to be financially profitable.

The objective of purchasing a Nikon stereo microscope was to improve the capability of identifying

pathogens of cotton. More than 40 samples for diagnosis have been received at the Ecosciences

Field surveys of insect populations in agroecosystems reveal low but significant levels of tolerance to Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt) toxins without mutational changes in resistance alleles.

Irrigated cotton production in Australia is predominately (80%) based on furrow irrigation.

The cotton industry relies on HVI measurements of cotton fibre quality for commercial trading. The current scoping study has confirmed the influence of cotton fibre length on the HVI Strength measurement i.e.

Based on the data that emerged from a Human resources project undertaken earlier in 2012 and reported on in March 2012, the objectives of this project were to investigate the likely level of support for a Strategic Pr

The reintroduction of cotton to the Australian semi arid tropics (SAT) was prevented by insect pests

that are dominant during the wet (summer) season and a perception that the crop could only be

The initiative aims to encourage more young people into the cotton industry by demonstrating the diversity of employment opportunities available within cotton production in Australia.

Within cotton plants nutrients are taken up by roots and partitioned between plant structures.
