Small palaeochannels located in irrigated cotton fields have been identified as areas of potential high deep drainage (Triantafilis et al. 2003).

This paper communicates further the findings, pertaining to the John Deere 7760 (JD7760) round module picker, of the Cotton Growing Practices 2013 industry survey and current research at the National Centre for Engine

Standard techniques for monitoring conventional insecticide resistance in Helicoverpa armigera originally developed for broad-spectrum contact insecticides involved topical bioassays of insects in the F0 generation.

Fleabane has become increasingly problematic in the farming system due to its prolific seeding rate, ability to emerge in different seasons and tolerance to glyphosate.

The Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre was the award-winning venue for the 16th Australian Cotton Conference which attracted more than 1500 representatives from the industry including cotton growers, research

Textiles are commonly made from intimate blends of polyester and cotton, which makes recycling of such textiles very difficult through mechanical means.

In 2010-2011 some 96% of the strains tested showed some level of neonicotinoid resistance (ie Actara-Cruiser or Shield) but that had fallen to 29% of cotton strains in season 2011-2012 and a similar 33% of cotton aphi

Current RPA (Remotely Piloted Aircraft, also known as drone) technology is capable of a wide range of applications.

Aim To provide the cotton industry with an update of the rates of work related serious injury and fatality to ensure that the most current and complete data possible is made available so that any priorities for and/or

Issue being addressed? Volunteer Roundup Ready cotton is becoming an emerging weed issue for the Australian cotton and grains industry.

Issue being addressed Australian cotton farmers have achieved substantial reductions in insecticide use from their adoption of GM technology to control Helicoverpa spp.

The issue being addressed? With yields now approaching cotton's known physiological limit, the focus is on how to sustain productivity growth through crop management.

Outline/Question The effectiveness of the Bt refuge strategy relies not only on the production of susceptible moths in refuge crops, but also the movement of these moths within the Bt cotton landscape.

Solenopsis mealybug establishment onto cotton and the damage they inflicted at different plant development stages was studied in a glasshouse trial and through field observations.

Issue being addressed A complex of soil pests can cause crop establishment problems in newly sown cotton crops even where seed dressings are used.

Cotton continues to be a tricky plant to get a consistent understanding on its responses to phosphorus and potassium fertilisers.

High-yielding cotton can be grown without causing environmental damage. Most growers aim to do this but believe high levels of inputs are required, but this is not necessarily the case.

To provide the cotton industry with an update of the rates of work related serious injury and fatality to ensure that the most current and complete data possible is made available so that any priorities for and/or act

Issue being addressed? Cut-off time is vital in furrow irrigation as it significantly affects the efficiency of irrigation.

Several recent experiments at ACRI, Narrabri have illustrated the fate of N fertiliser in irrigated cotton cropping.
