Learning Lessons From The Past

I share this story with you for a couple of reasons. First, this past season may have been the year that becomes the reference point of comparison for your farming operation. Whether it was torrential rainfall in the Mid-South and parts of the Southeast beginning in September to a scorching drought in south Texas, you may have felt scarred by those events.
Secondly, it is what you appreciate having survived the experience. While your scars may still be raw, there is a higher price for cotton, diminishing world stocks promoting a healthier global market and hopefully a disaster relief program to assist in your recovery.
A dear friend of mine in the cotton industry told me that he has heard that cotton is "dead" at least three times in his career. However, his tenacity, dedication and commitment to the business never wavered.
