Billion Dollars Worth of Unsold Cotton in Hands of Farmers
Washington reports the agriculture department estimates one billion dollars of unsold cotton sits with southern growers, merchants, and distributors. A one cent drop per pound could erase about 40 million dollars in value, prompting farmers to reduce 1919 acreage. About 8 million bales from 1918 remain unsold, held largely by growers as loan collateral, with ripple effects through banks and New York markets. Nearly 2 million farmers with five acres or more grow cotton, meaning widespread losses for each cent decline and impact on labor and local economies.
