Abstract
This study was conducted for investigating the impact of irrigation interval and deficit irrigation on seed cotton yield, fiber quality, and water productivity of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in the Şanlıurfa province of Türkiye during the years 2020 and 2021. The experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with split plots. The main plots included three irrigation intervals (D1: 4 day, D2: 8 day, and D3: 12 day), while the sub-plots consisted of three irrigation levels (I1: %150, I2: %120, and I3: %90) considered by Class A pan evaporation using the drip irrigation method. The study resulted in that the crop evapotranspiration varied from 693 to 1153 mm in 2020 and from 716 to 1126 mm in 2021, respectively. Irrigation interval and deficit irrigation had a statistically significant effect on seed cotton yield, seed cotton weight, and ginning outturn in both years of the study. The highest seed cotton yield, seed cotton weight, and lint yield were obtained from the treatment with a 4-day irrigation interval and irrigation water level at 150% (D1-I1), while the lowest values were obtained from the treatment with a 12-day irrigation interval and irrigation water level at 90% (D3-I3). However, irrigation interval and deficit irrigation did not have a statistically significant effect on 100-seed weight, fiber fineness, fiber length, and fiber strength in both years of the study. In the study, water use productivity (WP) ranged from 0.32 to 0.55 kg m-3, while irrigation water use productivity (IWP) ranged from 0.33 to 0.59 kg m-3, and similar results were obtained in both years of the research. According to the research findings, to achieve the highest cotton yield and quality, an irrigation interval of 4 days and a total seasonal irrigation water of 1062 mm are recommended.
