Optimism Abounds Prior To TCGA Meeting
Tommy Horton
Because many producers in those regions jumped into grain production in a big way during the last few years, it is expected that acres will move back into cotton.
"Overall, I look for cotton acres to increase in the state, but maybe not as much as in other areas of the Belt," says Williams. "I definitely think we'll have more acres along the coast."
As for the current situation with gins in Texas, Williams senses a positive mood that is directly connected to better prices and the potential acreage increase. He is particularly encouraged about south Texas where soil moisture levels are good at the moment.
