Cotton Crops

Since 2017 Ceres Farm have been trialling cotton crops with great success. In 2017 it was the first time the new CSIRO-bred varieties with Monsanto Bollard 3 technology were trialled in the valley, a variety with a resistance to pests that caused earlier failed cotton crops in the Ord.

It was said that the crops produced cotton of quality that was second to none in the country. Ceres Farm looks forward to working with the new cotton breed as they move to larger commercial quantities.
