Field experiments were conducted in 1988 to begin an assessment of both the agronomic and entomological implications from differences in irrigation termination dates imposed on both upland and pima cotton. Nine study sites were established with non-replicated treatment arrangements. Two replicated experiments were established at Marana, AZ on both upland and pima comparing early and late irrigation terminations. The upland (DPL 20) field was planted 26 April 1988 and irrigation terminations of 18 August (early) and 5 September (late) were imposed. The pima S-6 field was also planted 26 April and irrigation was terminated on 13 August (early) and 1 September (late). Yield measurements showed no significant differences (P ≤ 0.05) between early or late termination with the DPL 20, but quite substantial and significant differences were observed between treatments in the pima experiment.
