Cotton production is a $25 billion-per-year industry in the United States, and the U.S. exported almost $8 billion worth of cotton last year. Cotton is one of our thirstiest crops, and using drip irrigation can reduce water use while improving yields. How successful you are reducing water use and increasing profits depends on how you manage your drip system.

Our irrigation training session will provide some techniques you can start using right away to make yourself more profitable.

American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers released a report discussing a field study describing how varying the row spacing on cotton in relation to the drip irrigation system location affects the germination and yield potential. We will share the results of that study and other cultural practices and how to access the value of the different irrigation techniques.

If you currently use drip irrigation or were thinking of installing drip irrigation on your farm, this session is a much see. We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday.
