Variety selection is one of the biggest decisions and investments cotton growers make each year. In 2010, the UGA Extension Cotton Agronomists implemented the UGA On-Farm Cotton Variety Evaluation Program to assist in this decision. Varieties are evaluated across a wide range of environments in the cotton producing regions of Georgia in cooperation with county agents and industry partners. The implementation of this program has made a tremendous impact on variety selection from year to year, and it will continue to have the same impact in the future.
