A field study was conducted at the Marana Agicultural Center to evaluate the effectiveness of selected defoliation treatments on Pima cotton under cool weather conditions. Defoliants were slow acting at this location, probably due to cool night temperatures and dry field conditions. The combination Dropp + Def 6 + Accelerate gave good defoliation results 18 days after application. The experimental defoliant SN 597 NA 243 shows promise as a defoliant for Pima when temperatures are cool.
