Cotton News Heavy Rain and Hail Devastates West Texas Cotton
Five days of storms from May 23 brought 1 to over 7 inches of rain and hail that damaged many established cotton fields on the Texas High Plains. Farmers face tough choices on replanting or insurance settlements as damage totals rise and wind and dust threaten survivors. Extension service publications assist in replant decisions and stand loss impacts, with guidance available from county offices or online. Additionally, the final phase of the 1998 Disaster Assistance Package will deliver approximately 84.9 percent of eligible aid to about 266,000 producers the week of June 1, easing delayed relief for High Plains growers.

The piece also highlights the Gone With the Wind Museum in Jefferson, rare bluebonnet displays in Big Bend, and the 1953 deactivation of horse cavalry.
