Cotton and peanut policy stir Wiregrass farmers
In Houston County and surrounding Wiregrass, farmers plant cotton amid peanut quota changes. The new policy increases peanut acreage by about 44,000 acres and lets farmers exceed their peanut allotments with penalties eased. Officials warn revised quotas may not be ready yet, while many planters fear late cotton gains. A Cub Scout Pack was organized in Marianna with 60 members announced at a youth center meeting.
