Cotton council
mulls farm bill
LUBBOCK - The
National Cotton
Council supports con-
tinuation of the current
farm program because
the program has served
the industry very well
and there’s nothing
politically feasible that
offers any potential for
improvement.
“When you think
about our industry’s
progress under the cur-
rent program, the ratio-
nale for continued sup-
port is apparent
enough,” Council
Senior Vice President
Gaylon Booker told con-
ferees at the Texas
Cotton Ginners annual
recently.
“And except for peo-
ple in areas affected by
weather disasters,
there has been broad-
based improvement in
profitability across the
Cotton Belt, and in
every segment of our
industry.”
Booker said the mar-
keting loan concept,
introduced in the 1985
farm bill and main-
tained in 1990 farm
law, has enabled the
industry to enjoy a sig-
nificant increase in cot-
ton offtake — the combi-
nation of domestic con-
sumption and exports.
Offtake for the past five
years, for example, has
averaged 16.3 million
bales compared to a six-
year period in the early
1980s where offtake
averaged just 11.2 mil-
lion ales.
“The marketing loan,
together with a market-
oriented stocks-to-use
ratio was our
announcement to the
world that we intend to
compete . . . that if you
(foreign growers) want
to overproduce, then be
prepared to share the
burden of subsequently
adjusting production,”
Booker said. “It makes
no sense, particularly
with a new GATT
agreement soon to be
implemented, for the
U.S. cotton industry or
U.S. political leaders to
get weak-kneed and
give away the U.S. cot-
ton production base.”
