Relative cost of ginning cotton using saw, conventional roller, and high‐speed roller gins in the United States

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract The primary objective of this study was to investigate whether the cost of processing cotton using high‐speed roller gins is comparable to saw gins. The results from a “true” random effect model estimated using proprietary data voluntarily shared by cotton gins operating in Arizona and California showed that the average cost inefficiency for ...
