New Four Year Cotton Contract Alters Payment Basis

A four year cotton adjustment contract simplifies operation by paying a single sum to cooperating producers in 1936. The minimum payment is 5 cents per pound of lint on land left out of production, averaging about $8.60 per acre, similar to 1935 and slightly higher than 1934. Payments flow to those entitled to crop shares, with 87.5 percent to landowners, 12.5 percent to those providing work stock and equipment, and 50 percent shared between landlords and tenants based on crop division. Future years’ rates depend on conditions and will be announced by November 15 of the preceding year. Previously, 1936 rental payments were made in two installments plus parity payments. The new plan aims to cut costs and speed administration.
