Australia’s agricultural industries have the opportunity to harness the benefits of big data and digital technology, and it’s a case of working together at all levels, according to the Australian Farm Institute’s Executive Director Mick Keogh.

Cotton research has been conducted in Northern Australia since the mid-90s, initially in the Ord River Irrigation Area region of WA. With cotton in northern Australia continuing to expand, further research is underway, supporting CRDC’s goal to ensure new farming systems are sustainable and productive.

The spring edition of CRDC's magazine, Spotlight, is out today, taking an indepth look at crop nutrition and disease in preparation for the 2019-20 cotton season.
