Abstract: The Agriculture Act of 1964 provided for the development of a special cotton research program designed to produce information which could be used to reduce the cost of producing upland cotton in the United States. Authorization of $10 million annually for the special program provided for the extensive collection of data and for an annual report to congressional committees by the Secretary of Agriculture on the progress of the program. Field surveys have been conducted for the 1964, 1965, 1966 and 1969 crop years on about 5,000 cotton farms across all production regions in the United States.
