A Resilient Industry

The study also talks about the need for looking at all ginning costs and understanding the relationship between investments and expenditures. It will also help us identify gaps in ginning capacity from recent gin closures where cotton has been historically grown. I'm glad the LSU AgCenter did this study because it has led to the Southern Cotton Ginners eventually receiving a $69,000 grant from USDA-AMS to continue studying the "change and strategic positioning of the industry."
In summary, it's obvious that our industry is resilient and ready to meet any challenge – including the ones we face now. As you've heard other industry officials report in this space, cotton is not disappearing from the landscape.
This industry is too valuable to take for granted. For that reason, I can confidently say that we'll never become complacent. We have many opportunities awaiting us. Let's take advantage of them.
