The intent of this guide is to give cotton growers information relating the impact of known concentrations of a herbicide on crop growth, exposed at a given crop growth stage, on crop growth and development and final yield. While every crop and every season is different, this information should provide some guidance as to the likely impact of herbicide exposure to a cotton crop.
WATERpak provides technical information and practical advice to help irrigators improve irrigation practices, minimise environmental impacts and increase farm profits from irrigated cotton crops. Grains section added in 2008

The major projects were High Yielding Irrigated Grains in Cotton Farming Systems (HYIGCFS) and Achievable Yields (AY). Key recommendations have been developed from these projects to manage plant growth and to reduce the risk of lodging. this booklet documents research and commercial experience (since 2007) into the first set of best practice guidelines for irrigated wheat in cotton farming systems.

These guidelines have been designed to assist growers implement IPM strategies to suit their individual farming system. The original IPM guidelines were developed in response to requests from growers and consultants for information to work with when implementing an IPM program. The original version was a collaborative effort between growers and consultants attempting to practice IPM, researchers and extension officers.
