Kern County Agriculture Commissioner Ted Davis says warm soil needs to be in the high 50s for cotton planting, with a window from March 20 to April end. Pima cotton requires earlier heat, and 1992 market prospects remain uncertain amid water shortages. A public meeting on the valley water supply, topics include Endangered Species Act impacts and the Bay-Delta Process, is planned in Tulare.
