Irrigation is an important component of crop production in the Southeastern Coastal Plain.  In cotton, irrigation method has been shown to affect fruit distribution on the plant.  We investigated in-season aspects of yield dynamics in 4 cotton cultivars in Camilla, Georgia and Dawson, Georgia.  Drip irrigation increased maturity rates of the cotton cultivars without decreasing yield.
