Let's Keep Improving

With all of these advantages, it is no wonder that U.S. cotton trades at a premium to other comparable growths in the world. Your cotton has very little if any contamination because of your harvesting practices; it has even running quality because of the bale-by-bale HVI class; it has almost no country damage issues because it is (almost) all stored indoors; it is almost always delivered on time because of the U.S. infrastructure and the reliability of American shippers, and it can be delivered year-round, again because of our infrastructure, storage facilities and the financial strength of U.S. cotton merchants.
On any given day, a textile mill in Thailand, Indonesia, Japan or another importing country would likely buy American cotton ahead of similarly priced fiber from other exporting countries around the world. So, my advice to American cotton farmers is to keep up the good work, but don't do anything to subtract from the value of your product.
