ABSTRACT
A field experiment was undertaken at Regional Agriculture Research Station, Nandyal, Andhra Pradesh during kharif 2011-12 on vertisols to standardize nutrient management in arboretum cotton under High Density Planting System (HDPS). The experiment was laid out in split plot design having twelve treatments of arboreum cotton varieties and fertilizer levels and replicated thrice. Significantly higher seed cotton yield (1792 kg ha-1) and number of bolls per plant (16.6) were recorded due to Yaganti. Higher seed cotton yield (1670 kg ha-1) was recorded with 150%RDF (30-30 NP kg /ha) and was at par with 125%RDF (1612 kg ha-1) and 100%RDF (1576 kg ha-1).
Key words: Cotton, HDPS, Nutrient management, Seed cotton yield
