Poor crop establishment compromises productivity and may necessitate the expense of replanting.This project has demonstrated that thin biodegradable film may have a place in the cotton production system; soil temperat

Fusarium wilt is considered by many growers, ginners, consultants and other industry personnel as the most important constraint to sustainable cotton production to have developed in recent years.

During the 1990-91 and 1991-92 seasons planting date experiments were carried out at Narrabri Agricultural Research Station using a range of cotton varieties.

This paper looks at some of the differences between raingrown and irrigated cotton in Central Queensland, in particular: differences in basic inputs and differences between major problem areas.

Raingrown cotton in Northwest NSW and Southwest Queensland is not grown on metre beds, rarely has aerial applications, relies to a large extent on stored water, uses little or no fertiliser and large areas are harvest
