This ute guide can assist consultants and growers correctly identify their pest and beneficial insects and creates awareness of the role that native vegetation can play in IPM.

CRDC's Annual Operating Plan for 2011–02 (AOP): the fourth annual operating plan under the CRDC's Strategic R&D Plan 2008–2013.

The 2010-2011 Annual Report for the Cotton Catchment Communities CRC. 

The CQ Cotton Regional Extension project has been a key to the delivery of emerging, cutting edge research information and knowledge to the Central Queensland cotton industry.

Biodiversity, ecosystem service provision and human well-being are inextricably linked.

One aspect of the desire to improve the quality of the Australian cotton crop is to introduce new fibre quality imstrumentation to supplement the current Mircronaire measurement.

The Australian Future Cotton Leaders program was conducted between June 2009 and September 2010. The project framework was managed by Cotton Australia. The program involved three key stages over 14 months:

Precision irrigation is still in its infancy both in Australia and internationally.

Worldwide, virus diseases, especially Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) cause serious economic losses to cotton production.

During 2002 and 2003 the Australian Cotton Industry through the then CSIRO Textile and Fibre Technology Division with the support of the Australian Cotton Co-operative Research Centre (CRC) and the Australian Cotton S

) used to support pesticide management decisions at the catchment-scale can deliver environmental protection while retaining farm production benefits.

It is a well known fact that Australian cotton has a reputation as a consistent supplier of high quality cotton, which needs to be accurately and consistently specified.

The theme of the conference centered on organised grower groups and where they fitted in the agricultural research landscape.

In Bollgard® II cotton 2-5 sprays are required to manage mirid and stinkbugs every season.

The aim of this project was to provide a mechanism for growers of the Lower Namoi Valley to learn from other innovative growers experiences.

The project’s research has developed a new system of soil management. Eight fruitgrowers have set up fruit trees in commercial areas using the system.

The National Program for Sustainable Irrigation provided funds to undertake an 8-week research study on-farm during the 2010-2011 summer.
