Cotton

- A few late maturing fields are still being scouted for insects, primarily brown stink bugs and soybean loopers.
- Defoliation is proceeding on more fields each day and week.
- Harvesting has begun in a few locations. I observed a picker running about 8:00pm yesterday (9/2) in southeast Dallas county.
- Yield potential is all over the board (250 lbs- 1600 lbs/ac.)
