Seeding rate is one of the most important management decision that determines the profitability for the growing season.  Four seeding rates were evaluated to find out the recommended practices with a modern variety and under the current conditions in the Rolling Plains of Texas.  The trial was prepared with large-plot with 4 replications under irrigation and dryland condition. Cotton will be mechanically harvested and weighed, and samples will be collected to determine turnout, yield, and grade.
