Donald Johnson of the Plains Cotton Growers says a 10 percent national cut in cotton acreage allotments announced by Secretary Orville Freeman highlights the need for legislation to improve the market. The plan sets the minimum allotment at 16,310,000 acres and could affect Plains cotton, depending on spring planting. Johnson notes reductions vary by area and crop history.
