Arkansas gained one more cotton gin, raising the number of active gins to 30 in 2020, compared to 29 in 2019, according to numbers from the National Agricultural Statistics Service.
The increase coincided with a year that saw Arkansas’ second-highest yield, at 1,179 pounds of lint per acre.
“The NASS numbers confirmed the new construction projects we had been following over the past year in Desha and White counties,” said Scott Stiles, extension economist with the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture. “In one sense it’s great to see optimism toward cotton. On the other hand, this year and next could be very challenging for gins.”
