This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Effects of Defoliation, Plant Maturity, and Ginning Setup on Cotton Quality and Value in the Midsouth Porter and others (9) indicated that some of the advantages resulting from defoliation are higher harvesting efficiency, increased picking time per day, retardation of crop deterioration, reduction of insect population in the crop, and reduction of lint stain and trash content. They also gave some general tips concerning the ap plication of a defoliant. Thomas and Williamson (13) found that early and intermediate defoliation appeared to lower the fiber as judged by length, strength, Micro naire, and similar measurements and quantity of the crop harvested by the picker. Defoliation also tended to improve grade. Riley and Williamson (10) compared weather parameters in defoliated and untreated fields. They discovered that the relative humidity re mained at less than 50 percent for about an hour longer after sunrise in a defoliated field; these measurements indicate that defoliated cotton fields are drier in the daytime during the time of picking. They also found that the maximum temperature before frost averaged almost 5° F higher in the defoliated field and the minimum temperature 1° F lower.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harvest-Aid Chemicals for Cotton: Defoliants, Desiccants, and Second-Growth Inhibitors Research so far reveals that the preper use of harvest-aid chemicals does not reduce fiber quality or adversely affect the milling properties of mature cotton; and that their use may contribute to efficient harvesting, ginning, and insect control, even though yields may be slightly reduced under some conditions. Research further shows that growers who plan for defoliation usually achieve satisfactory results, that the timing of chemical application is important, that bottom defoliation sometimes contributes to good har vesting and high yields, that controlling late growth and second growth is important, and that additives sometimes make defoliants more efficient.

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upland Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a perennial plant produced as an annual crop in North Carolina. Due to high variability in net returns, and narrow profit margins, growers must focus attention not only on lint yield but also on lint quality. Implementing sound agronomic practices, such as proper defoliation timing and harvest timing, may help maximize lint yield and fiber quality. Cotton is normally defoliated when 60 percent of the total harvestable bolls are open. It is hypothesized that defoliation could be initiated before 60 OBPD (% open bolls) if fruiting is compact, and in contrast, defoliation could be delayed beyond 60 OBPD if fruiting is extended. Two experiments were conducted in 2004 and 2005 at Upper Coastal Plains Research Station near Rocky Mount, North Carolina, to observe the effects of defoliation and harvest timings on crops of various levels of maturity or fruiting habits. One study involved plant growth regulator strategies to mimic compact, normal, and extended fruiting habits, respectively. The other study included three variety maturity groups to accomplish the various fruiting habits. The targeted defoliation timings in each study were 50, 70 and 90 OBPD and the targeted harvest timings were 14 days after defoliation and 28 days after defoliation. According to lint yield data in 2005 from the study involving plant growth regulator strategies, a crop with compact fruiting could be defoliated earlier than 60 OBPD without sacrificing yields. Delaying harvest for a crop defoliated early may help maximize yield and fiber length, whereas an early harvest may be more appropriate for a crop defoliated late, especially if significant amounts of rainfall are experienced. In 2005, micronaire values decreased 4% by delaying harvest, regardless of defoliation timing. Data also suggests that NACB (nodes above cracked boll) ~ 3 corresponded to maximum yields, especially in cases where mepiquat chloride was used. Data from the study involving variou.
