Here is an interesting article which looks at the price of cotton during La Niña years. Since we are currently in a moderate to strong La Niña now, this is very relevant to what cotton producers should be considering going into the next growing season. The author traces the changes in cotton futures over time to see how uncertainty in spring planting due to the expected dry conditions causes a rise in futures, followed by a decrease as the crop conditions becomes more certain. You can read the article at Southeast Farm Presshere.
