Factors affecting U.S. sorghum and cotton exports: A dynamic ARDL simulation approach

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 285-303, September 2025.
Abstract The U.S. faces increasing competition from Argentina and Brazil for sorghum and cotton exports. Using a dynamic Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model, this study shows that U.S. sorghum and cotton exports are positively affected by area harvested, yield, and export price.

Cotton stalk management and a cover crop produce minimal effects on cotton leafroll dwarf virus

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract In 2017, cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) was first reported in the United States. One CLRDV inoculum source includes the previous year's cotton stalks; hence, destroying cotton stalks could be effective for CLRDV management.
