Final Report - Development of measures of soil health

URS Australia was commissioned by the Department of Primary Industries (DPI) to prepare a handbook of technologies that are available to provide flexibility in irrigation delivery systems to deal with the varying irri

Well designed irrigation storages and water courses on cotton farms can aid in the removal of sediment, nutrients and pesticides from irrigation water and enhance their habitat value for native plants and animals.

Investigation of the ecological value of irrigation farm water storages, Comparison of on farm storages with nearby natural water bodies,. On farm storages support a range of macroinvertebrate species.

6th Pacific Rim Conference, held at the Fairmount Empress Hotel, Victoria, BC, Canada from

the 30th of October to the 3rd of November 2005.

The Australian cotton industry occupies a niche market in optimal fibre quality, but this must be constantly developed in order to “stay ahead”.

Where remnants of old native vegetation remain, small nocturnal insectivorous microbats have probably provided agricultural production services by reducing insect populations in two ways: direct predation, and interru

Improved understanding of cotton plant response to water stress.

Experiments to establish the response of cotton plant to soil water stress under different soil types,

of water from below the root zone is the most elusive component of the water balance to measure.

“Severity Factors in Fusarium Wilt of Cotton” aimed to investigate the factors that affect the

severity of Fusarium wilt, and by doing so enable the development of more effective

Floodplains along river systems of the northern Murray-Darling Basin contain a diversity of wetland habitats, maintained through highly variable patterns of flood inundation.

The Beltwide Cotton Conferences are held every year, in early January.

The subject of this thesis "The effect of cereal stubble on Helicoverpa armigera(Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) activity in early season cotton(Gossypium spp.)" is a direct result of consultation with the

There is consensus both locally and internationally that the measurement of cotton grade i.e., colour, trash and grade, by the traditional subjective classing should be replaced with objective measurements by high vol

Options for increasing yield and water use efficiency in high retention Bollgard II cotton were identified from research that studied the growth and development of Bollgard II and conventional cotton varieties.

To extend and promote the adaptation and adoption of new technologies into sound management practices in the Border Rivers region including the Macintyre Valley and Mungindi areas.

Water continues to be a major constraint for cotton production systems.

The CRDC project funds for “Operational Costs for Cotton Experiments” are used to fund cotton experimental trials at the Australian Cotton Research Institute (ACRI).
