Because production costs have been trending upward relative to the price of lint, many producers are trying or considering alternative cotton production systems. The relationship between cotton price and production costs has changed considerably in recent years. The question is, at what range of prices of cotton does the difference in production costs and difference in yields favor solid cotton and over what range of prices is skip-row preferred. In general, an acre of solid cotton exhibits higher yields than one acre of skip-row cotton. Cotton is sold by the pound. This report examines narrow-skip versus solid cotton in terms of cost and yield.
