Abstract: Soil acidity and cotton yields are influenced by cover crop, nitrogen, and tillage method. Applying half the recommended lime rate may be possible without reducing cotton yields. Using a nitrogen intensive cover crop and applying less nitrogen should mitigate the effects on soil acidity and yields.
