Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the results of a three-year study comparing how different spindle types and hand-picking affect the quality and spinning performance of cotton. In 1961, 1962, and 1963, researchers tested three types of picker spindles against hand-picked cotton in California's San Joaquin Valley. Through the analysis of fiber and yarn qualities, the author discusses how each different harvesting method can affect variables such as grade, staple, length, strength, fineness, waste, and yarn quality. The study sheds light on the advantages and disadvantages of mechanical harvesting and can aid cotton producers in selecting the best method for their needs.
