Abstract

Excerpts from the report: This publication reports the results of a study of central ginning, which includes the storage of seed cotton and other associated practices. Central ginning involves acquiring cotton from a wide area for ginning at a central point. The study was undertaken in an effort to analyze ways of reducing ginning costs and improving processing and marketing services. Specific subjects covered in this study were (1) the extent of central ginning in this and other countries; (2) costs of central ginning compared with those of conventional methods; (3) advantages of central ginning, such as improvement in uniformity of fiber properties by blending of seed cotton; (4) disadvantages of central ginning; (5) practices in foreign countries that are related to central ginning in this country; and (6) practices and problems involved in application of central ginning in the United States.
