Abstract: Five rice variety stubbles were evaluated to assess their root length inhibition impact on two cotton varieties. It was found that all five rice stubbles, when incorporated into a pasteurised soil mix (70 % sand, 30 % loam), had a significant inhibitory effect on average root length of both cotton varieties. This has particular implications for the southern Australian cotton production region which is characterised by a short growth season and cooler establishment temperatures than the northern cotton production areas.
