It is my pleasure to welcome all of you to our 103rd Annual Meeting and Cotton Trade Show of the Texas Cotton Ginners' Association. The officers, executive committee, board of directors and staff hope you enjoy the show. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you while you are attending our event.
The theme for this year's show is "Ginning for Success in a New Decade." We chose this theme to reflect on the beginning of a new decade and the optimism of the coming crop year and eventual ginning season. Although the economy remains sluggish, there are signs that things are beginning to improve with consumer demand for textiles, which means more demand for our raw cotton.
This year shows promise of a better cotton price, at least one that is more competitive in relation to grain prices, and hopefully this will mean more acres of cotton. But, more importantly, many areas of Texas have received good moisture and are in decent shape to produce a significant crop, but we always have to remember it cannot be counted until it is ginned and baled.
