The National Cotton Council (NCC) in collaboration with the Georgia Cotton Commission (GCC), Southern Cotton Growers, and the Southeastern Cotton Ginners Association is conducting a series of information meetings across Georgia and the rest of the cotton belt to provide cotton producers, industry firms, and agri-businesses with crucial information regarding the 2025 Farm Bill provisions passed in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. These meetings are open to all interested parties and are designed to ensure the industry is well-informed about the new law’s impact.

“Understanding the intricacies of the new farm program provisions is vital for the continued success and stability of the U.S. cotton industry,” said NCC Chairman Patrick Johnson, a cotton producer from Tunica, Mississippi. “We encourage all involved to attend one of these important meetings to gain valuable insights and ask questions.”

GCC Chairman Bart Davis, a cotton producer from Colquitt County, said “I am appreciative of the efforts of all our cotton organizations in successfully advocating for these investments in the producer safety net, and am grateful for the opportunity to learn about the complex details of these program enhancements and how they will assist my operation, my community, and beyond.  I know that this is a busy season for farmers in Georgia but I urge my colleagues across the state to take the time to come.”

The meetings will cover key aspects of the new farm bill provisions, offering attendees an opportunity to learn directly from experts and engage in discussions about its implications for their operations.
