Prognostications on Cotton Crops From Monroe

The Commercial Appeal reports Geo B Flow Jr notes ragged and spotted cotton stands in Monroe County, with early bolls forming and fruit setting. Only about 30 percent of the crop is in, 55 percent is young chopped cotton, and frost timing raises debate on yield prospects. Precipitation has been favorable, but uncertainties remain about final yields.
