Abstract

Excerpts from the report: The quality and spinning performance of Acala 4-42 variety cotton mechanically reclaimed from the ground was evaluated from a single field in the San Joaquin Valley of California in 1965. The test compared the lint and yarn qualities of three sources of cotton: (1) First pick with a spindle picker when 75 to 85 percent of the bolls were open; (2) second pick with the same machine 35 days later; and (3) gleaning with a notched belt gleaner 3 months after first pick. The objective of this research was to determine the relative quality of cotton gleaned from the ground with a notched-belt machine, equipped with seed cotton cleaning machinery, 60 to 90 days after first pick, and after rains as compared with first- and second-pick cotton.
