Open Cotton Kate Crumley |
Howdy,
Our season is rapidly wrapping up, most of the grain is out of the field, and I've seen some soybeans harvested. We've started defoliating and picking cotton as well.
Defoliation is usually recommended at over 60% open bolls, or 4 nodes above cracked boll. We have a defoliation trial set up this year, I will add the results for that test next week.
For more information, here are links to a defoliation guide from the Texas Row Crop Newsletter, the 2019 Mid South Defoliation Guide, and the Wharton county defoliation test results from 2017.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me either by email or calling the office. Have a good weekend everyone!
