Nesbits Talk to the Farmers on Cotton Crop Loss and Practices

Department of Agriculture Atlanta notes the cotton crop cut at least a third by July August heat. Farmers weigh holding for higher prices, while stresses mass seed selection, fertilization, baling standards, and use of wire ties as alternative to traditional ties. Wheat, corn, oats win improvement via careful seed, prep, and cultivation.

Condition of the crops in Georgia amid drought and heat

The report notes a sharp decline from July optimism as July rains spurred weed and bolls but August heat and drought caused leaf shed and premature boll opening. Estimated losses reach 25 to 30 percent, with little chance to improve. corn shows mixed prospects but remains adequate for local use. fruit crops marketed with profits for growers, and livestock diseases decline alongside better corn yields.
