Whilst managing for fibre quality is in the title of this presentation, most of the focus is on yield.

Soil organic carbon (SOC) increased throughout a 10-year monitoring period (1998-2008) in an experiment that compared five cotton-based cropping systems.

This project commenced in 2002 to monitor DD across a range of irrigated cropping lands in the upper Murray Darling basin.

Management of insects, weeds, diseases, PGR and defoliants, sections included on biosecurity, and myBMP

Compared to conventional 1 m spacings, UNR did not mature earlier in Australian systems, because fruiting site development was slowed in response to early plant competition impeding the opportunity for early fruit mat

This bulletin explores the relationship between local irrigation practice and adaptive learning. When combined the shared conceptualisation of real world problems leads to better industry outcomes.

This report builds on and applies the first three stages of the study, Exploring Between Community Resilience & Irrigated Agriculture in the MDB,1 to address the following questions:What are likely to be the s

CRDC's Annual Operating Plan for 2010–11 (AOP): the third annual operating plan under the CRDC's Strategic R&D Plan 2008–2013.

Vision: “Australian cotton, carefully grown, naturally world’s best”

By 2029 the Australian cotton industry will be:

‘Cotton Fusarium Wilt Management’, had a number of objectives to obtain data to improve the management of this disease.

This project aimed to identify means to improve nutrient use-efficiency in Australian cotton production systems and to improve soil health/fertility.

The objectives of the project were to (i) develop techniques for evaluating insecticide efficacy against solenopsis mealybug, and (ii) evaluate the efficacy of a range of insecticides that have potential to provide ef

The ‘Regional Cotton Extension Officer’ has played a key role in improving the uptake of research

within the Cotton Industry by jointly working with the Cotton Catchment Communities Cooperative

This project resolved two long-standing anomalies regarding Cry2Ab resistance in H. armigera.

The Australian Cotton Industry has always been held in high regard by the

Australian and World Agricultural sectors due to its innate ability to focus on and

Ginning is an energy intensive process. This project evaluates the energy usage inside the cotton gins in Australia. electricity use is found to range between 44-66 kWh per bale, with national average being 52.3 kWh.

The 2008–09 year has seen extensive development of the online portal to support myBMP, the web-based version of the industry’s environmental management system, Best Management Practices.

Silverleaf whitefly (SLW), Bemisia tabaci B biotype (Gennadius), is a major insect pest of cotton and horticultural industries.

Future Australian and international policy directions may require industries to account for their

resource use and emissions. Rural primary industries utilise several types of resources and produce
