- Intervention effect Bed sowing increased seed index in cotton by 39% compared with flat sowing.
- Intervention effect Bed sowing increased seed cotton yield in cotton by 50% compared with flat sowing.
- Intervention effect Higher planting density was more efficient than lower planting density in reducing weeds in cotton.
- Intervention effect Lower planting density improved monopodial branches in cotton by 18% compared with higher planting density.
- Intervention effect Lower planting density improved total bolls plant -1 in cotton by 14% compared with higher planting density.
- Intervention effect Lower planting density improved boll weight in cotton by 16% compared with higher planting density.
- Intervention effect Lower planting density improved seed index in cotton by 17% compared with higher planting density.
- Intervention effect Lower planting density improved seed cotton yield in cotton by 23% compared with higher planting density.
- Association Sowing method influenced fiber uniformity in cotton, which was comparatively higher in bed planting.
- Association Planting density increased fiber fineness in cotton, which was better at lower planting density.
- Recommendation The authors recommend bed sowing with lower planting density to improve cotton morphology, yield and yield-related traits.
