Bright Grain Outlook Forecast for Area with Record Cotton Crop
The Cotton Exchange forecasts a near record cotton crop while about 20 000 acres in 20 counties were lost to bad weather or left unplanted. Subsoil moisture from early rains supports a strong season, with August seen as pivotal. High haying and hoeing costs may offset irrigation savings, entomologist notes rapid fruit set in cotton, and some early bales could arrive this month though full harvest may wait until October.
