Townsend Honored As CCOY
A special reception at the Roosevelt Hotel was the setting for the event. Syngenta and Cotton Farming magazine are co-sponsors of the award. On hand to honor Townsend were his wife Kim, daughter PJ, son Luke, his sister and brother-in-law – Jeri and Ted Hogan from Waxahatchie, Texas – as well as numerous cotton producers and consultants who have worked with him through the years.
Townsend, a Texas native who received his bachelor's degree from Texas Tech University and a master's degree from Mississippi State University, has consulted in the Mississippi Delta for 38 years. Several of Townsend's friends spoke at the reception, including fellow consultants Roger Carter and Tucker Miller, Syngenta's Chad Steiner and producer John McKee. Cotton Farming publisher Lia Guthrie and Steiner presented Townsend with the special Syngenta jacket that goes to each year's winner.
"As I mentioned before, this is one of the real highlights of my career," Townsend says. "This award means more to me than you can possibly imagine."
