Cotton Quality and Fiber Properties

Textile Research Journal, 1954
The increased use of drying and cleaning equipment at cotton gins has occasioned complaints from spinners that the "quality" characteristics of cottons are being lowered due to "over drying" of the seed cotton prior to ginning. The present study was undertaken to clarify the effects of overdrying on the processing characteristics of cotton and to ...

Cotton Breeding for Fiber Quality Improvement

2014
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is the world’s leading fiber crop, grown or processed in many countries, providing a major contribution to their economies. Yield is economically most important to a producer which drives cultivar development and adoption; however, fiber quality is the primary focus for spinning mills. Cotton fiber quality must improve to

Harvester-Based Cotton Fiber Quality Sensor

2009 Reno, Nevada, June 21 - June 24, 2009, 2009
A multispectral sensor for in-situ cotton fiber quality measurement was developed. The sensor consists of a camera, four optical filters, a halogen light source, a fiber sampling device, and an image collection and processing system. The optical filters for the camera were selected based on the multiple linear regression analyses with the 100-nm ...

Evaluation of Modern Cotton Harvest Systems on Irrigated Cotton: Fiber Quality

Applied Engineering in Agriculture, 2011
Picker and stripper harvest systems were evaluated on production-scale irrigated cotton on the High Plains of Texas over three harvest seasons. Observations on fiber quality using High Volume Instrument (HVI) and Advanced Fiber Information Systems (AFIS) were made on multiple cultivars harvested from six locations. When fibers were relatively immature,

Response of cotton fiber quality to the carbohydrates in the leaf subtending the cotton boll

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, 2012
AbstractThis study investigated the effect of nitrogen (N) fertilization on leaf and boll N and carbohydrate concentrations in the development of fiber quality. A two‐year field study was conducted with two cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cultivars, Kemian 1 (average fiber strength 35 cN tex–1) and NuCOTN 33B (average fiber strength 32 cN tex–1) at five

Crop Juxtaposition Affects Cotton Fiber Quality in Georgia Farmscapes

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2009
Phytophagous stink bugs (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), including green stink bug [Acrosternum hilare (Say)], southern green stink bug [Nezara viridula (L.)], and brown stink bug [Euschistus servus (Say)], have become a serious production issue for southeastern U.S. cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., growers.

Variability of cotton fiber quality

2000
Fiber quality variability is one of the key determinants of the profitability of the cotton crop. As this variability increases, the risk associated with production increases and the expected return decreases. Prior to our studies, variability had been characterized at the field or crop lever.

Effect of Cleaning Treatment and Cotton Cultivar on Cotton Fiber and Textile Yarn Quality

Applied Engineering in Agriculture, 2012
Cotton fiber quality and textile yarn quality can be affected by ginning processes and cotton cultivars. The overall goals of this study were to utilize a microgin to evaluate the effect of seed cotton cleaner and lint cleaner on fiber and yarn quality, and to benchmark FiberMax 1740 and Phyto Gen 370 against Deltapine 555 grown in Georgia.

The quality of cotton fiber : a new challenge

1997
Spinning machinery is increasingly automated and rapid. The resulting fall in processing costs means that the starting material has become the principal component in the yarn cost. In addition, the spinning process and the quality of the finished product are dependent upon the characteristics of the fiber supplied.
