Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultra-narrow row (UNR) cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a production system using high plant populations in reduced row spacings. The responses of this production system to nitrogen fertilizer have not been fully investigated. Evaluations of yield and earliness of harvest are also important. A three-year study was conducted at the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station farm, Burleson County, TX, on a Ships clay (very-fine, mixed, active, thermic Chromic Hapluderts) and a Weswood silty clay loam (fine-silty, mixed, superactive, thermic Udifluventic Haplustepts). A split plot design was used. Nitrogen fertilizer rates of 0, 50, 101, and 151 kg N ha−1 were applied as the whole plots and row spacings of 19, 38, and 76 cm were established as the split plots. Data included lint yield and yield components, as well as earliness of crop maturity and earliness-related parameters such as boll distribution. Lint yield was increased by higher nitrogen rate. There was no nitrogen rate by row spacing interaction on lint yield, implying fertilizer rates do not need to be changed for UNR systems. Reductions in row spacing did not significantly affect lint yield in any year. Responses such as reduced bolls per plant, increased plant populations, increased ginout, and decreased boll size were often significant and combined to allow the crop to maintain equivalent yields as row spacings were reduced. The slight UNR earliness advantages were probably due to changes in boll distribution. Based on these results, increases in lint yield and earliness may not reliably contribute to the profitability of UNR cotton.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cotton production is a critical portion of Texas agriculture and the statewide economy. Optimizing input quantities, especially nitrogen, is necessary to maximize profit and production efficiency. Using National Agricultural Statistics Service data for Texas District 1 South, various functional forms were constructed and analyzed, disclosing that the square root model was most accurate. These models estimated yield under various nitrogen application rates, finding that current nitrogen levels are below optimal. Additionally, volatility and variance of cotton futures returns were analyzed under several models, including GARCH specifications. These models revealed high persistence and leverage effects in cotton returns. After evaluating models for precision, the GARCH (1, 1) model had the highest degree of accuracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cotton production today is not to be undertaken frivolously if one expects to profit by its production. If cotton production is to be sustainable and produced profitably, it is essential to be knowledgeable about the growth and development of the cotton plant and in the adaptation of cultivars to the region as well as the technology available. In addition, those individuals involved in growing cotton should be familiar with the use of management aids to know the most profitable time to irrigate, apply plant growth regulators, herbicides, foliar fertilizers, insecticides, defoliants, etc. The chapters in this book were assembled to provide those dealing with the production of cotton with the basic knowledge of the physiology of the plant required to manage the cotton crop in a profitable manner.
