In 2022, the National Cotton Council (NCC) was very active on matters affecting cotton growers’ competitiveness.
The NCC testified at multiple Congressional hearings about what is working in the current farm law, including crop insurance policy, and what are the needs in upcoming 2023 farm law reauthorization. NCC Chairman Ted Schneider, a Louisiana producer, also appointed an NCC Farm Policy Task Force with representation from the seven segments. This panel is charged with developing our farm bill priorities by early next year.
