In 1995, the Cotton Division, AMS, USDA completed, at the request of its parent organization, the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), a project involving a customer survey and benchmarking against Cotlook, Ltd. of Liverpool, England. Neither the customer survey nor the benchmarking project gave any indication that the Cotton Division should make major changes in its Spot Cotton Quotations Program. Significant chantes in the spot quotations program will be made in response to requests by a unified cotton industry and after a change in existing legislation.
