EFFECT OF DIFFERENT PICKINGS ON THE QUALITY OF UPLAND COTTONS

Abstract

Overall, in all the varieties studied, higher mean fibre length values were recorded in second picking with desirable bundle tenacity and micronaire value over other pickings. The extent of variation in fibre properties differed between boll maturation periods. Pickings had significant effect on quality of fibre suggesting picking-wise marketing of the produce to get premium price in the market.
