The results from the 2013 UGA OnFarm Cotton Variety Performance Evaluation Program are in, and this data is illustrated in the attached slides (see link below).\u00a0 The first slide illustrates the location of these trials and the range of geography captured in this program.\u00a0 In the second slide, varieties are ranked according to their average yield across all trials.\u00a0 Also listed is the percentage of trials in which a variety performed within the top 3, within the top 2, or was the number one variety in the trial.\u00a0 The third slide illustrates performance for individual environments.\u00a0 Environments are listed by number from left to right, based on their trial average.\u00a0 Lower yielding trials are listed on the left, and the higher yielding trials are shown further to the right.\u00a0 Varieties are ranked according to their combined average yield across all trials.\u00a0 Within each trial, the top variety is underlined and the top 3 varieties are highlighted in green font.\u00a0 This platform allows growers to see if varieties perform well across the board, or if some varieties may only perform well in certain types of environments.\u00a0 It is important to realize that the lower yield environments (trial averages) were not necessarily the result of drought stress in 2013, whereas in other years, this may be the case.<\/p>\n

This and other production information will be discussed in detail during the winter county meetings.\u00a0 Your local county agent is an excellent resource when making variety decisions, and can help guide you through this process.\u00a0 The UGA Cotton Variety Performance Calculator (https:\/\/www.ugacotton.com\/vault\/cottoncalc\/) is a useful tool for growers to evaluate variety performance across a number of environments, and it also allows the user to customize variety comparisions by location, trial type, year, and irrigated versus dryland.\u00a0 The calculator can be found on this website (www.ugacotton.com) under \u201cCotton Resources\u201d (Cotton Variety Selection tab), or under \u201cDecision Aids\u201d. The calculator includes all of the onfarm trials as well as small-plot Official Variety Trial (OVT) data.\u00a0 OVT data can be found on this website as well, under \u201cCotton Resources\u201d (Cotton Variety Selection tab).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
