World’s best practice underpins the performance of the cotton industry.
The success of the Australian cotton industry is in no small part due to the commitment of the industry to its science. Through the industry’s investment in and adoption of RD&E, it has been able to grow significantly and also deal with some of its biggest challenges. The profitability, sustainability and competitiveness of the industry are underpinned by its ability to continually adopt emerging science, adapt technologies and improve its practices. The Best Practices theme is recognition of this and looks to support those systems and initiatives which continue
We will achieve this by:
- Supporting a best practice framework as the primary integrated planning, risk management, benchmarking, knowledge development and delivery system.
- Promoting best practices through the development and delivery Joint Venture.
Measures of success:
Industry is able to demonstrate best practice The cotton industry’s myBMP program is the primary resource for farmers accessing best practice knowledge and tools.
- The cotton industry’s myBMP program is nationally recognised and integrated with other agricultural sector best management practice programs.
- An 80 percent coverage of Best Management Practice systems across the Australian cotton industry.
The Best practice theme is managed by CRDC’s R&D Program Manager, Ian Taylor. For more information, contact us.
