The poster that I will be presenting shows how COTMAN, a cotton crop monitoring program, can aid in the visualization of the progress of your crop. In the particular study that it was used on there were two studies being performed. The first was an irrigated versus non irrigated portion and the other was the affect that PGR, a plant growth regulator, had on the internode length. COTMAN was the computer program used to track the progress. It is capable of creating plant data graphs and show predicted dates such as first bloom and cutout. The data, represented in the poster to be presented, will all be directly from the program and will show its ability to monitor a cotton crop throughout the growing season
