Here are links to our latest harvest survey reports. We've held back on doing any more immediate cotton surveys due to the continued rain and delays.

But the peanut harvest report, in particular, has cotton comments in a number of spots.

Rice Harvest Progress Reports From Delta States, Texas 11-1

Peanut Harvest Reports Covering 7 States 11-1

I was asked to participate in a cotton-focused conference call after the USDA's report next month and summarize crop conditions in the Midsouth and Southeast.

With the Delta crop, I keep trying to come up with descriptive words that can be used in a public setting. But parts of the Southeast are beginning to look nearly as bad. I'm assuming folks to our east (I'm in Jackson, Miss.) are getting the rain that passed through here in the last 48 hours.
