Water is the most important and limiting factor in plant productivity. Currently, there are no comprehensive comparisons between cultivars under multiple irrigation levels. The main objectives of this research were to measure in-season crop growth between cotton cultivars under multiple irrigation rates, compare the effects of cultivar and irrigation on cultivar yield and boll distribution. In 2012, similar cultivars and irrigation regimes will be used to monitor in-season growth of cotton cultivars under similar multiple irrigation regimes.
