The “new format” is now in its second year. That is the new format of the annual Beltwide Cotton Conferences. The conferences have been slimmed down to three days and there is no trade show. I missed last year’s in New Orleans but thanks to my sponsor, Nufarm, I am able to spend a day here in San Antonio.
To get an overview of this year’s program I spoke with the coordination, Dale Thompson, Manager, Marketing & Processing Technology at National Cotton Council of America. Dale says the conference has really dialed in on the consultants who are advising so many farmers today. There are cotton farmers here of course but many are relying more and more on their advisors as technology in agriculture continues to move fast. Learn more about what’s going on at this year’s Beltwide in my interview with Dale.
