It is well recognised that Consultants and Agronomists have a key role to play in the dissemination of information generated through research and development.

The weed management costs incurred by Australian cotton growers represent a significant and often under estimated loss to cotton cropping gross margins.

Most agriculturally important plants, including cotton, are colonised by soilborne fungi known as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The AMF depend on the plant to supply their energy, in the form of sugars.

Cotton aphids are a potential problem for future cotton systems.

Petroleum spray oils (PSOs) are now an essential part of many integrated pest management (IPM) programs in agricultural crops (Beattie et al. 1995; Mensah et al. 1995).
