Roller gins typically produce less short fiber content

Roller Ginning Aims To Preserve Quality

Roller gins typically produce less short fiber content, fewer neps and deliver all-around more impressive fiber length numbers. Their most recent tests illustrated the stand's ability to maintain a high ginning rate.

In the future, he hopes to take the HSRG to the next level by encouraging a commercial gin to invest in this important technology.

"We never know how a variety will act when it's ginned because of its specific genetics, the growing conditions under which the cottons were produced and other variables, so we'll be evaluating a number of Mid-South and Southeast varieties moving forward, and we will continue to be very collaborative with our fellow researchers at Mesilla Park and our funding partners at Cotton Incorporated," says Byler.
