A field experiment was conducted during the kharif season of the year 2012 at Agronomy farm of B. A. College of Agriculture in a split plot design with two Bt-cotton cultivars viz. Vikram-5 (V1) and RCH-2 (V2) as a main plot treatment and three dates of sowing 25thMay (D1), 10thJune (D2)and 25th June (D3) as sub-plot treatment with four replications. Three dates of sowing provided three different environments in terms of thermal and moisture regimes. The results indicated that the total crop duration varied with the dates of sowing. The crop life period was found to be shortened with delay in sowing, more pronounced being in cv. Vikram-5. The total biomass yield of cotton as influenced by different treatments showed that the first date of sowing (D1) had produced significantly higher seed cotton yield as well as total biomass.
