The winter edition of CRDC's magazine, Spotlight, brings you a feature on the industry's second Sustainability Report, which has been five years in the making.

The 2020-21 CRDC Researchers' Handbook is a key resource for all researchers working with, or interested in applying for funding from, the CRDC.

The 2020 Australian Cotton Production Manual is a critical reference tool for cotton growers: a one-stop-shop of on-farm cotton production information.

This document provides a brief outline of the projects CRDC has invested in for 2020-21 (current as of May 2020).

Diseases of cotton are of a significant constraint to cotton production and have been identified as key areas for investment by the cotton industry.

The Australian Cotton Sustainability Report 2019 is the Australian cotton industry's second five-year sustainability report, co-published by Cotton Australia and CRDC.

Sustainability targets are being developed by agricultural industries to help improve and report on environmental performance.
