Measures Aimed at Stopping Pink Boll Worm Invasion
The Agriculture Department plans hearings on three quarantines to bar pink boll worm. They restrict entry and manufacture of foreign lint cotton to the North, bar shipping from North to the South, and curb imports of lint cotton from abroad. The pest, found in India and Egypt among others, has caused major damage since its spread into Egypt five years ago. The policy aims to protect U S cotton by diverting Egyptian supply to Southern mills through new grading and production shifts.
