Cotton Growers Weigh Tariff Costs and Triple A Aid
R C Branch of Pecan Point argues world markets pressure on U S cotton, favoring tariffs and soil erosion costs. He credits the Triple A conservation payments and a balanced farming shift as offsetting price declines, supporting farmers as they adjust soils and livestock. He notes past poverty from soil loss and rising costs, and cites improved southern conditions due to pasture, forage crops, and regimens. He points to 1926 and 1981 export and price contrasts, arguing other factors kept demand low and England’s shipping focus shifted to food and munitions. He concludes the smart path is domestic programs to promote cotton usage amid abundance.
