Tickets for the Cotton Industry’s biggest event this year, the 2025 Cotton Collective in Toowoomba have already gone on sale and one of the biggest visual drawcards promises to be as impressive as ever.

The Trade Show at Cotton Collective will be staged in the Toowoomba Showgrounds pavilion and just as it was in 2023, Cotton Australia’s Michael Murray is still wondering how they are going to fit everyone in!

“It’s always a highlight of the key annual Cotton event – whether that be the Cotton Conference or the Cotton Collective because it gives exhibitors the chance to display their latest tech, gadgets, innovations and new models, all part of the farming landscape and all recognised and appreciated by cotton growers.”

This year organisers of the Trade Show, Australian Cotton Growers Magazine, are pleased to welcome Gold Sponsors Tama and INCYT, both bringing to the event products of global significance backed by local experience and know-how.

Simon Long, TamaWrap Commercial Manager said Tama takes every opportunity to support the Australian Cotton Industry and key industry stakeholders. “This event provides us a chance to catch up with our growers and the opportunity to meet new faces that may be coming into the industry, or who may be increasing their production.

“Our team will be onsite discussing our 2025 R&D trials which was largely focused on our commitment to sustainability. We are continuing to lead the industry in this space and so this year was no exception with new wraps coming out that have been through pickers and will now sit in dedicated sites under consistent monitoring to document performance. This is all part of our product development process ensuring every wrap that comes into the season is ready and will perform the way we expect it to. “

Matt Westgarth joined INCYT’s commercial team in April 2024 as Head of Sales and has over 15 years’ experience in agriculture through roles with Cotton Growers Services and Bayer Crop Science.

“We feel that it's important to support events that get growers, and the wider industry, together. Collaboration, innovation and advancement of industries such as the cotton industry depend on events like the Cotton Collective; we're proud we're able to support the event by being a sponsor. It is also a great way to meet growers and industry peers face to face, it allows us to cover a lot of ground in the one location.”

INCYT continue to focus on unlocking exponential growth for growers through innovation in monitoring, automation, and more. “We'll be showing our complete on-farm monitoring and control solution. INCYT farmers can monitor their farm through weather stations, soil moisture probes, channel sensors, cameras and many other sensors, and are able to control their pumps as well. We'll be showing the physical equipment as well as the dashboard and data visualisations.”

Cotton Australia’s Michael Murray applauds the sponsors and all exhibitors for their commitment to the Cotton Collective in 2025.

“Once again, the team from The Australian Cotton Grower Magazine has done a great job of putting this together. There will be up to 80 exhibitors, many showcasing products and new equipment relevant to every grower in attendance.

“While the Trade Show floor will be the place for presentations and display, it will also be the social heart of the Cotton Collective with all lunches and morning and afternoon teas served in the pavilion and plenty of time to catch up with old friends over a cup of coffee, hot soup or even a drink at the bar,” Mr Murray said.

Entry to the Trade Show and all meals are included in the registration for the Cotton Collective and anyone involved in the industry is welcome to the Trade Show itself free of charge.
