A preliminary investigation was made in Ultra-narrow row cotton production on the Safford Agricultural Center to see if there was any promise in that technology for cotton producers in the high deserts of Arizona. Increases in plant populations to near 100,000 plants per acre in single lines, double lines and quadruple lines per bed were the goals of the study. In-season plant mapping to evaluate differences in plant growth characteristics were done along with yield measurements to evaluate differences. Yield increases were not seen with increases in plant populations in single row plantings nor in multiple row plantings.
