Cultivar selection is one of the most important decisions producers need to make before planting; however, it has become more difficult to make the decisions as new cultivars are available on market each year with advanced herbicide technologies. To help support cotton producers make decisions on cultivar selection, we conduct replicated on-farm large plot cultivar trials. Our objective of this project is to provide agronomic information of advanced cotton cultivars to producers in the Rolling Plains of Texas. Thirteen cotton cultivars of mixed advanced technologies (DP1820B2XF, DP1845B2XF, DP1948B2XF, FM2398GLT, NG3930B2XF, NG4545B2XF, NG4792B2XF, NG5711B2XF, PHY350W3FE, PHY480W3FE, PX3B07W3FE (Phytogen cultivar), ST5600B2XF, and ST5707B2XF) were planted in 9 locations across the Rolling Plains of Texas. Cotton trials were planted on-farm with plot size varying from 0.0006 to 1.40 ac. The study was replicated three times and designed as randomized complete block design. Lint yield and fiber quality will be reported.
