Quality properties of commercial cot‌ton varieties grown through thirteen years (1982-1994) were studied. The essential findings of this study could be summarized as follows :- 1. Commercial cotton varieties of each cotton category differ signifi‌cantly in most quality properties. 2-Commercial cotton varieties of each cotton category was divided sig‌nificantly into two separate quality levels. 3-Confidence limits at 1% level of significance were made for the quali‌ty levels of each cotton category.
