An experiment was conducted during the summer of 2009 and 2010 in Marianna, AR, to determine the impact of a rye cover crop on the critical weed-free period in cotton.  The data for the first year showed no change in the initiation of the critical weed-free period but it did shorten the overall length of the critical weed-free period.  The data for the second year is still being analyzed at this time.
