An adherence to the policy of producing

Reader Says, 'SURE In A Mess'
 
• "An adherence to the policy of producing and delivering the highest quality product will be a factor."

• "At these prices, we will overproduce cotton in 2010 and be right back at 50 cents again."

• "The new economic adjustment assistance program included in the 2008 Farm Bill will have a significant impact by preserving spinning capacity and even attracting new investment to the United States."

• "The mythical advent of the $5 per bushel soybean."

No matter what factor or factors affect whether cotton's demand outlook falls into the positive range, it goes without saying that every U.S. cotton producer is hoping that it gets there in 2010. However, for this month's Web Poll, we will shift our focus from outside forces, which are sometimes uncontrollable, to a topic of which U.S. cotton producers can take advantage if they so choose.

Jay Hardwick, a Louisiana cotton producer who currently is serving as chairman of the National Cotton Council (NCC), strongly encourages other U.S. cotton producers to consider participating in the multiple conservation programs available under the 2008 Farm Bill.

Read more about these possibilities and opportunities in NCC's "Cotton's Agenda" on page 25, then cast your vote and share your thoughts on this subject in the "Comments" section.
