How I as a Producer Dealt with the Cost-Price Squeeze in 1982: In the Southeast

Herbert Harris, III


 
ABSTRACT

If we cotton farmers could go up on the price of our cotton as our input costs increase in the same manner as the U.S. Government Classing Service increases their classing fees as their costs increase, one of our major problems--that of increased input costs of production and decreased prices for our cotton--would disappear. To cope with this problem. I have concentrated my efforts in three areas: (1) increasing yields per acre; (2) decreasing input costs per acre; and (3) paying keen attention to marketing.
