Nitrogen application rates and plant density are vital factors that influence cotton production considerably. The aim of the experiment was to study effect varied nitrogen (N) rate planting densities (PD) on growth yield performance two cultivars from different origins. research laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with split plot arrangements. There were levels; low N level (F1 120 kg ha−1) high (F2 180 three densities; 8 plants m−2 as (LPD), 10 medium (MPD) 12 (HPD). During this we observed interactive levels PD growth, performance. Results showed FH-142 took more number days reach maturity compared Huamian-3109. Cotton dry biomass crop (CGR) also considerably influenced by levels. produced maximum under F1 HPD F2 MPD respectively while least noted LPD. High CGR MPD. Another side, Huamian-3109 only HPD. Least Higher total similar relatively higher seed lint These combinations recommended for better both agro climatic conditions Pakistan.
