Topping Cotton For Better Yields In Drier Seasons
The author argues topping cotton is advantageous for wing and top bolls, noting upper bolls mature earlier and shed less leaf. He topped on August 1 last year but skipped this year due to a wet season, cautioning against topping in wet years yet open to it in dry periods. The piece also discusses manure benefiting cotton and offers to confirm its effects to skeptics.
