Effect of Tillage Upon Lint Yield and Fiber Quality

B.J. Phipps and L.A. Clements


 
ABSTRACT

No-till, and reduced till with and without paratilling and conventional tillage were compared. Paratilling increased lint yield, but lint percent was reduced. Lint percent was lower in the conventional tilled cotton as compared to no-till. Fiber length was generally shorter in the no-till. Trash content was much lower in the conventional tilled cotton.
