Cotton Newsline: July 29, 2016

Cotton producers are urged to sign up for the FSA-administered Cotton Ginning Cost-Share program that provides cost-share assistance payments to Upland and extra-long staple cotton producers with a share in the '15 cotton crop. This one-time, $300 million program, is intended to offset a portion of U.S. cotton producers’ 2015 crop season cotton ginning costs. The National Cotton Council’s Vice President of Producer Affairs, Craig Brown, joins us to explain the details and to remind producers that the deadline to sign-up is August 5th.
