Pick n Match
Cotton Australia has reinstated the Pick n Match service in response to grower concerns about a shortage of cotton pickers in some regions, with the situation made worse this season by heavy rain and flooding, which have disrupted picking and thrown out schedules across different areas.

Pick N Match brings together growers and picking contractors to ensure a smooth harvest.
