Seven cotton varieties including Pima S -6 were demonstrated in Mohave Valley, Mohave County in 1989. Of the six upland varieties two were new varieties not previously demonstrated in this area. Trial results indicated DP77 at 1697 lbs. led other varieties by 109 lbs. of lint over DP90, 1590 lbs. and 287 lbs. over bottom variety STV115 at 1412 lbs. STV110 yielded 1482 lbs., DES 119 at 1429 lbs., DP50 at 1414 lbs. Pima S-6 yielded 950 lbs. The two new varieties STV110 and STV115 placed last and third on yield but when economic values were calculated based on grade and price they ranked third and fourth. The second attempt on Pima saw an increase in yield from 447 lbs., the previous year to 950 lbs. in current trial.
