Wincott Northern Australia field walks a success

The inaugural Women in Cotton (Wincott) events in Northern Australia were a success, with over 40 participants joining field walks in Kununurra and Katherine.

Hosted by Baldy Bay Farm and Dry River Station, attendees gained insights from guest speakers including Better Cotton's Senior Manager of Farm Sustainability Standards, Natalie Ernst and LDC's Strategic Account Manager, Holly Gall.

The event was sponsored by RDO, Bayer, CRDC, and Cotton Australia with ticket sales supporting local causes: the Kununurra Community Kitchen and the MacGregor-Shaw Family Appeal.

Coordinated by Northern Australia Wincott representative Sarah Nolan and Cotton Australia’s Senior Policy Manager, Northern Australia, Simone Cameron, these field walks provided a glimpse into the flourishing northern Australian cotton industry.
