Statistical Method to Evaluate the Relationship between Climatic Factors during the Development Periods of Flowering and Boll Formation and Cotton Production
This study investigated the relationship between climatic factors and 
production of flowers and bolls obtained during the development periods 
of the flowering and boll stage, and to determine the most 
representative period corresponding to the overall crop pattern. 
Evaporation, sunshine duration, relative humidity, surface soil 
temperature at 1800 h, and maximum air temperature, are the important 
climatic factors that significantly affect flower and boll production. 
There was a negative correlation between flower and boll production and 
either evaporation or sunshine duration, while that correlation with 
minimum relative humidity was positive. Higher minimum relative 
humidity, short period of sunshine duration, and low temperatures 
enhanced flower and boll formation. It could be concluded that the 
fourth quarter period of the production stage is the most appropriate 
and usable production time to collect data for determining efficient 
prediction equations for cotton flower and boll production, and making 
valuable recommendations.
