Silverleaf Whitefly detected on cotton crops 4th Feb 2001 Queensland Department of Primary Industries cotton development extension officer, David Kelly, Emerald, who works in conjunction with the Australian Cotton Cooperative Research Centre, said all Emerald Irrigation Area growers would have to work together to adopt an integrated approach to manage this serious pest. Mr Kelly said silverleaf whitefly was a major pest of many crops throughout the world including cotton, soybean and melon crops. Mr Kelly said whitefly populations were influenced by climate, crop sequence and management strategies. Experience in other countries had shown that non-strategic insecticide use had led to a speedy development of whitefly insecticide resistance. Australian Cotton Cooperative Research Centre scientists had recently discussed research priorities to manage the pest. A major research effort would be undertaken this autumn to investigate optimum management options. Mr Kelly said the Cotton Research and Development Corporation had been able to secure two emergency use permits for insecticide products to control whitefly. Investigations were continuing to determine whether further permits would be available.

The study, published Friday, Feb. 7, in the journal Science, holds particular promise for small-scale, low-income farmers in developing nations, said the researchers. These farmers, especially those in tropical regions, regularly risk large, pest-related crop losses because they cannot afford to use the pesticides available to larger farms.

Advertisement Incessant, record-setting rains in June, followed by more rain in early July, had a lot of farmers singing the blues, and resulted in a lot of shallow-rooted cotton plants, members of the Southern Cotton Ginners Association reported at their summer conference at Lafayette. But wet fields soon dried out under a hot July sun, and crops in many areas were being irrigated as the month moved along. Among the brightest prospects for 2004 are for the Missouri Bootheel, according to David Blakemore. “We had 388,000 planted acres,” he says, “and 105 percent of that is good to excellent. “I’ve never seen a crop looking this good this early. A lot of the cotton is two weeks early, and we may be ginning some of it in August. The Bootheel is showing prospects for good crops across the board. Everyone’s looking forward to a good fall harvest season.”

Water Cotton crops 'ruined' by floods Email Printer friendly version Normal font Large font Georgia Waters and AAP January 24, 2008 This year's cotton crops planted by Emerald farmers are "probably ruined" by the floods, but the deluge has delivered a silver lining, according to the Queensland Farmers' Federation. CEO John Cherry said it was "still too soon to tell" what the extent of the damage would be to crops as most of them were still underwater. "But the dam is now full, which means farmers have three to four years' worth of water for irrigation," he said. Mr Cherry said 80 per cent of Emerald's cotton crops were still submerged. "It's probably gone for this season," he said. "But because of the drought only about 10 per cent of the usual cotton crops were planted this season, so the losses will be lower." Mr Cherry said the federation was predicting the damage to infrastructure to be in the tens of millions.

"Our research indicates that transgenic crops should be a viable option. This is the first paper to show such a substantial increase in yield for bioengineered crops."

32. Flooding Affects Rice And Cotton Crops In China Excessive summer rainfall in central and southern China has led to serious flooding in the Yangtze River valley. Chinese officials have taken the drastic step of deliberately http://www.fas.usda.gov/pecad2/articles/chfld.htm

Flooding Affects Rice and Cotton Crops in China Excessive summer rainfall in central and southern China has led to serious flooding in the Yangtze River valley. Chinese officials have taken the drastic step of deliberately allowing farmland to be flooded in order to protect people and property downstream. The crops most likely affected by the flooding this year are early rice, late rice, and cotton. Flooding occurs in some part of central and southern China every summer, but the 1998 floods have been unusually widespread and long-lasting. The Government of China has been reluctant to quantify the impact of the flooding on rice and cotton production, and estimates by other analysts vary considerably. The U.S. agricultural counselor in Beijing is currently traveling through the North China Plain and central China to evaluate the impact of the flooding. China's Floods Worst Since 1954... Unusually heavy rain was reported in many areas of southern and central China this summer. According to official reports, this year's floods have surpassed the floods of 1954, still remembered as the worst in modern history. The two major rain events, in late-June and late-July/early-August, were separated by 2 to 3 weeks of dry weather. Some locations received more than 18 inches of rain during a three-day period in July. The runoff overwhelmed the dikes and flood-control facilities along the Yangtze River and resulted in what Chinese officials describe as the most serious flooding in decades, particularly in Hubei and Jiangxi Province. Rainfall has diminished, but water levels in lakes and rivers in central China remain very high. The start of the typhoon season in August brings the possibility of additional flooding. Plant diseases and pests reportedly have flourished in the hot, humid conditions this year and are expected to pose a greater-than-normal problem. The most important field crops affected by the Yangtze River flooding are rice and cotton. An estimated 50 percent of China's early-rice crop and 25 percent of China's cotton crop are grown in the affected provinces.

This pesky pigweed species, called palmer amaranth, has long been held in check by powerful herbicides. But three years ago, scientists discovered a far-from-ideal development in this Central Georgia farming hamlet: The first species that's resistant to all but the most aggressive chemical treatments.

If production forecasts are realized, each crop is on course to be the second largest crop on record. Advertisement According to USDA's Oct. 12 crop production report, cotton production is forecast at 22.7 million bales, up 2 percent from the September forecast but 2 percent below last year's record high production. Yield is expected to average 797 pounds per acre, up 15 pounds from last month but down 58 pounds from 2004. Estimated yields declined from last month in Louisiana, but rose for Arkansas and Missouri. Yield forecasts remained unchanged in Mississippi and Tennessee. Area expected for harvest is unchanged from last month at 13.7 million acres. This is up 5 percent from 2004. Soybean production is forecast at 2.97 billion bushels, up 4 percent from September but 5 percent below 2004. Based on conditions as of Oct. 1, yield is expected to average 41.6 bushels per acre, up 2 bushels from September but 0.6 bushel below last year's record high yield. Below-normal temperatures and adequate moisture during August and early September across most of the Corn Belt, Great Plains and Delta were beneficial to the crop during the final stages of development.
