Pima Cotton Improvement

Five experimental strains and Pima S-6 were grown in nine Regional Tests across the Pima belt in 1987. Experimental strain P70 averaged highest in yield both below and above 2,500 foot elevation. The difference in yield between Pima S-6 and P70 across all locations was 48 pounds of lint per acre. Sequential harvests at Phoenix and Safford, AZ, indicated that P70 was the earliest and Pima S-6 the latest entry in the 1987 Regional Test.
