Cotton Companion: Recent Episodes
Cotton Grower
The Cotton Companion podcast is a bi-weekly conversation among the editors and friends of Cotton Grower magazine about all things cotton related.
The Cotton Companion examines the latest EPA dicamba development and BASF’s acquisition of Bayer’s cotton brands. Finally, we’ll provide audio from Rep. Mike Conaway (R-TX) and Ag Secretary Sonny Perdue as the duo discussed the farm bill and hurricane relief in Texas recently.
The Cotton Companion talks about the latest developments in the ongoing dicamba saga. Jim Steadman catches up with Extension weed expert Dr. Larry Steckel to get his perspective. We also discuss how and why USDA’s production reports have seemingly ignored Harvey, Irma and High Plains hail.
In Episode 30 of The Cotton Companion, Cotton Grower editors Beck Barnes and Jim Steadman discuss the stunning U.S. production forecast from USDA and its impact on the market. We also visit with University of Arkansas Weed Scientist Dr. Jason Norsworthy about some of the findings of a summer’s worth of field research on dicamba.
