Talk to Real Farmers on Cotton Yields and Methods
The author argues Texas cotton farmers must abandon current practices, citing McFarlane data and 1924’s poor season to push for soil-building and reduced acreage. He cites a Brazos Valley example of high yield on a small plot and predicts soil improvement can lower costs, raise profits, and avoid ruin from overproduction.
