Broadcast Newsline: January 5, 2005

CCI's work to help move U.S. cotton fiber into overseas markets is extremely important, says Woods Eastland.

This week’s Cotton Newsline is three cuts. All cuts Woods Eastland, Vice Chairman of the National Cotton Council and president/CEO of Staplcotn Cooperative of Greenville, Mississippi.

Suggested introduction cut one:

With U.S. cotton fiber production estimated to reach a record twenty-one and a half million bales for 2004/2005, Cotton Council International’s work to help move U.S. cotton fiber into overseas markets is extremely important, says Staplcotn president and CEO Woods Eastland.

Suggested introduction cut two:

Members of Staplcotn, the largest producer-owned cotton cooperative in the United States, rely on organizations like Cotton Council International to promote U.S. cotton to international customers.

Suggested introduction for cut three:

U.S. cotton and its products offer several advantages other cottons can not give customers, says Eastland. These incentives help U.S. cotton maintain a strong and growing demand overseas.
