Title
Effects of Deficit Drip Irrigation Ratios on Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Yield and Fibre Quality

Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Cutting irrigation from 100 % to 75 % of soil water depletion raised cotton WUE from 0.62 to 0.71 kg m-3 in a field trial.
- Intervention effect Drip irrigation at the 75 % level did not reduce seed cotton yield or yield components over two years.
- Intervention effect No significant difference in fibre length, fineness or uniformity index between 100 % and 75 % irrigation in 2005.
- Intervention effect No significant difference in fibre elongation between 100 % and 75 % irrigation in 2005.
- Recommendation Drip irrigation at the 75 % level is recommended because it saves irrigation water without reducing yield.
