New Cotton Varieties Promising High Prices in Queensland
The article describes two new cotton varieties developed by Dr Tomlin and colleagues in Queensland, including a tree cotton that could reach 10 to 14 feet and yield over 300 bolls per tree, weighing about 1,200 pounds of clean cotton per acre. English interest offers 20 cents per pound for the first variety, with silk cotton commanding 24 cents, though yields vary. It contrasts Queensland trials with Southern U.S. climate, discusses drought, labor, immigration, and logistics, and notes the long-term potential for Southern growers if Queensland success translates to the Americas.
