Spot Cotton Prices Steady Amid Mixed Market Hope
Spot cotton prices held steady in the South Central Area last week as trading slackened in Memphis and export purchases fell. Middling 1 1 16 cotton on the Memphis market reached 36.25 cents per pound on June 17, the same as the prior week, with Little Rock and New Orleans at 35.65 and 35.95 cents respectively. Domestic mill inquiries remained strong for old and new crop, while loan equities traded slowly and farmers offered less at bid prices.

Ladino-Grass Pastures Balance for Best Yields
Ladino grass and clover in pasture should maintain 40 to 50 percent Ladino for top production. Excess clover or too little grass reduces nitrogen and weakens the stand. Rotation grazing, mowing, and careful spacing of Ladino and grasses like bromegrass and orchardgrass determine long term productivity. Orchardgrass offers early growth but bromegrass often yields more with Ladino, especially with alfalfa increases.
