Turning to cotton I BELLATA DRYLAND
Making the shift from mungbeans and sorghum to cotton wasn’t an easy choice, but it has been a saving grace in dry times.
As cotton harvest draws to a close at “Springfield”, Bellata, Craig and Merrillee Tomlinson together with McGregor Gourlay Agronomist Brooke Cutler, talk with The Land on the second season of growing dryland cotton in Bellata.
With a total of 128mm of in-crop rain, the crop has yielded 2.3 bales to the hectare, and McGregor Gourlay agronomist, Brooke Cutler, Moree, said the crop performed well considering the difficult season.
