The project will investigate the impact of land management practices (tillage, stubble management, crop rotation) on carbon losses through terrestrial pathways such as runoff, erosion, and leaching.

The reniform nematode is a major constraint to cotton production in the USA. Recent detections in Central Queensland have led to an extensive soil survey of the Theodore district.

The Australian Cotton Industry is developing a carbon (C) footprint calculator for cotton farms.

To quantify and explain patterns of soil compaction caused by cotton pickers and to develop a set of practical recommendations for minimising soil damage during harvesting operations.

challenges suggest the need for research with cotton growers, distributers and participants in the production cycle, to understand what people think the future holds for the industry, and it's cotton communities.
