Cotton Market Activity and Signups on the South Plains
The Lubbock cotton scene shows moderate activity with prices up to 50 points higher in some markets. USDA officials report light domestic mill demand but stronger export sales, including Far East and European buyers, as farmers pledge late harvest to government loans while stocks and loans adjust. Signups for 1968 cotton and feed grain programs begin briskly in Lubbock and surrounding counties with about 60 to 70 enrollments in the morning and more later, many opting for diversion payments and early plan choices.
