Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Delayed emergence decreased simulated lint yield as location elevation or latitude increased.
- Intervention effect Delayed emergence decreased simulated water use efficiency as elevation or latitude increased.
- Intervention effect Irrigation lasting beyond 4 to 6 weeks did not further increase lint yield.
- Intervention effect Earlier emergence and early high-capacity irrigation generally increased cotton WUE.
- Intervention effect Earlier emergence and early high-capacity irrigation produced greater yields.
- Association Irrigation-driven vigorous growth and delayed maturation lowered WUE.
- Intervention effect Concentrating high irrigation rates on part of a pivot did not significantly increase net yield.
- Intervention effect Focused irrigation produced numerically larger net lint yield at Garden City.
- Recommendation The authors conclude cotton is poorly suited as an alternative crop in central western and northwestern Kansas.
