Plans for the 2022 Beltwide Cotton Conferences (BWCC), January 4-6, 2022 at the Marriott Rivercenter Hotel in San Antonio, TX, are moving forward and online registration for producers and cotton industry representatives is open. To register go to www.cotton.org/beltwide/ and click on registration tab.
That BWCC home page also includes more information about the forum, including a link to make housing reservations and an updated program.
Producers wondering what type of information the BWCC will offer need only look at the list of topics being considered for inclusion in the BWCC’s Consultants Conference. Potential topics include: ThriveOn, herbicide resistance, the U.S. Cotton Trust Protocol®, changes in weather patterns, the Biden administration’s impact on agriculture, the Endangered Species Act, developments in Bt, and carbon sequestration at the field level, along with many others.
In addition to the Consultant’s Conference there also are 11 separate cotton technical conferences that will provide additional topic specific presentations from key research and industry presenters. The Cotton Engineering-Systems Conference, for example, is planning to include presentations on data analytics, robotics, remote sensing and unmanned aerial vehicles, among others.
