Welcome to the Cotton Map
The Cotton Field Awareness Map is an industry initiative which has been designed to highlight
the location of cotton fields. The service is provided free of charge with the purpose of minimising
off-target damage from downwind pesticide application, particularly during fallow spraying.
Farmers, farm managers, resellers, consultants, agronomists, applicators and contractors are
encouraged to input their cotton field(s). Users can also access the Cotton Map to check the
location of the paddock(s) they may be planning to spray to assess the proximity of the nearest
cotton crop.
The map is a joint collaboration between Cotton Australia, Cotton Research and Development
Corporation (CRDC), Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) and Nufarm
Australia Limited, developed to meet industry needs.
