Excellent update on early returns on yield and grade from the 2024 Cotton harvest. Outstanding discussion on what they are seeing and what to expect going forward. Excellent conversation

The duo of Caitlin Frederick and Brant Baugh, AgriLife Extension Agents in Crosby and Lubbock Counties respectively, bring you another informative episode. Their discussion is about tools available to determine or estimate the Net Return of the current cotton crop based on your projections of costs and returns. They visit with AgriLife Extension Economist Dr. Andrew Wright on how to use the Harvest Decison Budget Analyzer to find these answers. This is very usefull and timely information. The location of this analyzer tool is at lubbock.tamu.edu. Dr. Wright also discussed this information in his latest blog post, Ag Economics on the Plains, and can be located at AgriLife.org/AgEco.

Excellent discussion on the harvest aide decisions being made in the area and the challenges, weather impact, drift safety precautions, and general information related to using harvest aides and products. There was also discussion on the upcoming tour in Crosby and Lubbock Counties on October 9 where producers will have an opportunity to see variety trials on drip and research trials comparing row spacings and seeding rates under pivot.

Great information. Danny
