Cotton as a Future Irrigated Crop for Chaves County
J B Herbst reports on 1200 acres in Chaves County proving Durango cotton can mature with long staple fiber. He notes delayed planting due to cool spring, first bale harvested October 4, and field at Hagerman may yield 18 bales from 25 acres despite jackrabbit damage. He argues irrigation cotton boosts land values, complements alfalfa, and could yield greater net income than multi-year alfalfa, with water use around 12-15 inches.
