The Cotton Board is happy to announce the 2022 Cotton Incorporated Producer Tour Program Dates! The Cotton Board Producer Tour Program has given thousands of cotton producers and industry partners the opportunity to see their Cotton Research and Promotion Program checkoff dollars at work inside Cotton Incorporated’s World Headquarters and Research Facility in Cary, North Carolina. This unique program allows attendees to spend a day listening to key Cotton Incorporated staff explain research and priority areas in their department, as well as visiting the innovative laboratories located inside the research facility. Producers are able to discuss major research and marketing programs that are essential to improve the future demand and profitability for U.S. cotton. During the tour, we will also have to time to learn from staff at a commercial spinning facility on their operation, sustainability in the supply chain, and how cotton producers can become more involved in the industry.
The Tour Dates for 2022 are:
• Multi-Region Tour: February 6-8
• Multi-Region Young Producer Tour: March 20-22
• Women in Ag Tour: June 12-14
Air travel, hotel stay, and meals are provided to each participant during the dates of the tour. All tours follow the same essential schedule.
If you are interested in attending a tour, please reach out to the Southwest Regional Communications Manager, Christi Short, at (469) 951-6161 or cshort@cottonboard.org. We can’t wait to show you Cotton Incorporated!
