New manuscript🚨 Using High-Resolution Multispectral Data to Evaluate In-Season Cotton Growth Parameters and End-of-the-Season Cotton Fiber Yield and Quality mdpi.com/3222864 #mdpiagronomy via @Agronomy_Mdpi

Using High-Resolution Multispectral Data to Evaluate In-Season Cotton Growth Parameters and...

Estimating cotton fiber quality early in the season, or its field variability, is impractical due to limitations in current methods, and it has not been widely explored. Similarly, few studies have...

Our lab is getting to full speed for the season. From soil mapping and soil sampling to testing our lateral irrigation system. Today we were out in the field doing the uniformity test, and checking the VRI rates for one of our corn trials.
