Description
Summary:Four field experiments were carried out in several areas of Arizona to evaluate the effects of a plant growth regulator and an array of conventional cotton defoliant treatments on pima cotton. Variable conditions were encountered across locations at the time of defoliant- treatment applications. However, there was a consistent trend observed in terms of treatment effectiveness, and a few distinct treatments appeared to have considerable promise for 1-time applications for satisfactory defoliation of pima cotton.
