The head of the National Cotton Council says they’re expecting cotton acres to rise in 2022.
Gary Adams tells Brownfield prices are at the highest level they’ve been since 2011. “December futures are trading in the low 90s and that’s really the price that our producers look at when they’re making their 2022, acreage decisions,” he says. “And they’ll not only look at cotton prices, but they’ll look at prices of competing crops as well.”
He says input prices are also on their way up.
