§ 52981 Nonapproved Cotton Growing Rules

• •Farmers can grow types of cotton that aren't officially approved in the area.
• •But they have to follow special rules made by the board and the department.
• •The rules make sure that the unapproved cotton doesn't ruin the quality of the approved cotton (Acala and Pima).

A farmer wants to try growing a new kind of cotton that isn't on the approved list.

The farmer can do it, but they must follow rules to make sure their new cotton doesn't mess up the good cotton (like Acala or Pima) that other farmers are growing nearby.
