We need your help!
As a part of a large organic cotton grant, Texas A&M Researchers and Extension specialists will be studying many aspects of organic cotton production to both meet growing demand while making organic cotton more sustainable and resilient. We will be starting with the soil, your soil, if you will be willing to let us do some testing…….
You will…
- Receive $600 for each organic cotton field sampled for soil analysis.
- Receive soil health analysis and microbial diversity reports on your operations free of cost.
- Collaborate with experts to gain valuable insights on your farming operations.
We will…
- Collect soil to evaluate various soil health indicators and soil microbial diversity data over a 4-year period.
- Study the suitability of agronomic practices for improving organic cotton production.
This project is funded by USDA’s Organic Research and Extension Initiative (OREI) grant.
