Southern Cotton Crop Protection (including CottonInfo Disease Technical Lead and myBMP module lead)

Regional conditions and the shorter cotton growing season found in southern NSW and Victoria require different crop protection approaches to those used further north. In response to these needs, this project brings expertise in disease and invertebrate pest research to the region, appointing a new cotton pathologist to the south. Building on earlier projects, it analyses key pathology and entomological issues, and identifies integrated management solutions to boost productivity and profitability for southern growers
