Two replicated on-farm short staple variety trials were planted in 1999. Twenty-two varieties were evaluated on the Claridge farm in Solomon and fifteen varieties on the Colvin farm near Ft. Thomas. Several new varieties were planted in these studies, including 2 transgenic varieties: DP 5690RR, BXN 16; 4 Israeli inter-specific hybrids and six other varieties seen for the first time. DP 35B was the highest yielding variety in the Claridge trial with BXN 47 a close second. Both varieties yielded over 1300 pounds of lint per acre. PM 1440 was the highest yielding variety in the Colvin trial with SG 747 and DP 5690RR following closely behind. These varieties yielded between 700 and 800 pounds of lint per acre. Other agronomic data from the varieties and HVI values from the lint are also included in this report.
