The Effect of Planting Rates on the Germination of Cotton Varieties and Lines in Samarkand Region

Today, field crops are suffering from severe climate changes and drought conditions. In cotton cultivation, one of the prominent issues observed during spring seasons is the rotting of cotton and line seedlings after continuous weeks of rain. Preventing this and planting varieties resistant to rotting have become crucial matters. Until the cotton develops its true leaves, it requires minimal water, and especially fuzzless seeds are more prone to rotting compared to fuzzy seeds. Rational use of agrotechnical measures during cotton planting significantly impacts the future viability, germination, and productivity of the cotton.
