The Use of Concentrated Molasses Solubles (CMS) as a Nitrogen and Sulfur Fertilizer in Cotton Production

David Dunn, Gene Stevens and Bobby Phipps


 
ABSTRACT

The lint yields from four different first bloom nitrogen treatments were compared and found to be statistically equivalent. Fiber quality measurements were also found to be the same for all treatments. Post harvest soil pH decreased for CMS and Ammonium sulfate treatments on one site. These same treatments also raised post harvest soil sulfate levels on the same site. Net returns to producers were found to be greater for CMS than other fertilizers however the control produced the highest returns of all treatments.
