Arizona Cooperative Extension produced and distributed weather -based Planting Date and Cotton Development Advisories for 8 cotton production areas (Marana, Litchfield Pk, Pinal Co., Parker, Safford, Yuma Valley, Dateland and Aguila) in 1991. Planting Date Advisories were distributed from mid - February through the end of April and stressed 1) planting full season cotton varieties according to heat unit accumulations rather than calendar date and 2) the importance of soil temperature to good germination. Cotton Development Advisories were distributed from early May through mid- September and provided growers updates on crop development, insects, weather and agronomy. The Cotton Advisory Program will continue in 1992 with the major change being an expansion in coverage to include Paloma, Queen Ck, and Mohave Valley.
