Hawkins of Oklahoma A and M Experiment Station told the Cotton Research Congress in Dallas that cotton drains little soil compared with corn wheat sorghum and alfalfa but leaves soil bare and eroded. He urged rotating cotton with erosion resistant crops to maintain organic matter and nutrients, noting rolling uplands should not return to cotton and suggesting more pasture livestock in rotation.
