A one-year scoping study determined and prioritised the important weed issues of cropping systems with dryland cotton (DAQ117C).

Over the past 10 years the rapid uptake of IPM and transgenic cotton has allowed a dramatic reduction in the use of insecticides in cotton.

The effects of rotation crops and stubble management (including the residual effects of past rotation crops) on soil quality, carbon sequestration, deep drainage, nutrient leaching, yield and profitability of succeedi

The silverleaf whitefly, B-biotype Bemisia tabaci, first detected in Australia in 1999, has

become a major pest on cotton in central Queensland. The silverleaf whitefly is also found,

Salinisation as a consequence of irrigation can occur as a result of the application of poor quality (i.e. saline) water or mobilisation of salts from rising water tables (i.e.

In Australia, the cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera, has a long history of resistance to

conventional insecticides, Transgenic cotton (expressing Bt toxin Cry1Ac) has been grown

Ultra-narrow row (UNR) cotton, a production system with rows spaced less than 40cm apart, has been proposed as the ideal system for earlier maturity without substantial yield loss.

Cotton growers are facing increasing pressure to manage resources more cost effectively and to be more accountable for the impact their decisions have on the surrounding environment.

This document highlights the performance of Bollgard cotton in the Australian Industry during the 2004-05 season.

The UQ35c twelve-month project continued on from the UQ32c research covering the Helicoverpa armigera microsatellite survey of field collections over twelve of the major cotton growing regions during the 2003-2004 sea

The performance of the first generation of transgenic (INGARD) plants released in Australia since 1996 was disappointing at a commercial level, despite the considerable reduction in pesticide usage required to grow th

Heliothine caterpillars and silverleaf whitefly (SLW) are the major pests of field crops in central Queensland (CQ).

Cotton R&D Corporation funds for the project entitled ‘Operational Costs for Cotton Experiments’ were used to fund cotton experimental trials at the Australian Cotton Research Institute (ACRI).

Managing sustainable cotton production is becoming more difficult with the ever-increasing demand on limited resources.

At a July 2004 meeting of the CHCG&IA Research and Technical Subcommittee it was resolved that DPI&F research staff develop a strategy to meet the regional R&D needs of the Emerald area, as identified in a

Several issues developing around Bt crops [chickpea, pigeonpea, sorghum] at ICRISAT. Considerable difficulties with achieving high expression and lack of clear understanding of deployment or management needs.

The rivers, floodplains, wetlands and estuaries of northern Australia are key resources.

On the land and in country towns, the battle to survive goes on forever. Increasingly, the world needs food and fibre, but squeezes out the communities which provide them.
