Just read a report from Texas Seed Trade that the cotton in S. Tx is about 2+ weeks behind and that there won’t be much of a bottom crop on the plants. Also worried about boll rot. Doesn’t sound too good. Don’t have enough heat units so far. Cotton that is opening will have lower quality lint and that means lower prices because of the quality.
Not good. That’s what I was afraid of. Everything was going along fine until about the second week of June. It hasn’t stopped raining since.
And that will follow last year when most seed didn’t even come up be it cotton or corn.
