COTTON'S
CONTRIBUTION
Cotton contributes vitally
needed tax dollars to help
keep state programs and
services rolling. Tax revenues
derived from sales and income
associated with cotton exceed
$66.2 million annually.
More than 27,500 businesses
in Texas are centered around
cotton. These include farms,
gins, cottonseed oil mills,
warehouses, raw cotton mer-
chandising firms and textile
mills. Together, there cotton
businesses provide jobs for
69,448 Texans.
Income from cotton plays a
key role in Texas’ economy.
The production and pro-
cessing of this natural fiber
generates more than $2
billion in the state’s business
activity each year. Multiply
this figure by the $2.50 to
$3.00 which the federal
government estimates is
created by every dollar of
cotton industry revenue and
it’s easy to see why cotton’s
continued progress is so vital
the Lone Star State.
