Cotton Profiteering Shows High Cotton Grower Profits
The 1917-18 cotton crop cost 11.28 cents per pound to produce while average prices reached 27.5 cents, yielding about 16.42 cents profit per pound or over 145 percent. A Watkins survey of 2000 southern counties supports these figures, noting costs include bacon and meal for laborers. For 1918-19 costs stay near 1917-18 levels, but prices rise above 30 cents per pound, signaling near 200 percent profit despite Democratic Congress inaction on price fixing.
