Based in Emerald, Sharna works with the Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF) and CottonInfo as a development extension officer for the Central Queensland cotton growing regions.

Sharna is relatively new to the region and has only been involved in the cotton industry for a short time, however has quickly become passionate about the industry due to the enthusiasm of everyone involved from growers to the ginners.

As a development extension officer, Sharna brings the latest news, information, events and research to Central Queensland growers, consultants and industry members. Sharna supports and provides assistance to various on-farm trials which are of industry and regional interest, as well as a link for other researchers and projects to extend services to the region.
