Excerpt from Influence of Cotton Extension Upon Cotton Production in Northwest Louisiana: A Study of 369 Farms in Caddo, Claiborne, De Soto, Jackson, Lincoln, and Union Parishes, Louisiana, 1935
This circular presents a study of the cotton production enterprise on representative farms in six northwest Louisiana parishes.
The study was undertaken for the purpose of obtaining more definite in formation regarding the influence of the teaching activities of the Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service upon the cultural practices now being followed in growing cotton in sample areas. The extension activities conducted over a period of years and the means and agencies employed in extension teaching have been analyzed not alone from the standpoint of the dissemination of reliable information, but also from the standpoint of actually influencing farmers to accept the improved cotton - production practices being advocated.
Many data are also presented regarding varieties, source of seed, spacing, fertilizing, and similar cultural and marketing practices which should be of inestimable value in the further development of a sound cotton-extension pro gram throughout a large section of the State. In order that reliable informa tion might be available regarding the grade and staple of the cotton grown on the farms studied, areas were selected around gins that were furnishing the Cotton Marketing Division of the Federal Bureau of Agricultural Economics with samples of each bale of cotton ginned.
