Mission Statement

In partnership with other Texas Agricultural groups, we uphold Texas as the nation's leader in agriculture, recognizing TEXAS COTTON as the dominant cash crop in Texas, leading the nation in cotton production. Advocating for the U.S. Southwest Region of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, we provide a platform for communication to benefit the movement of cotton, facilitate the formation of sound trade policy, furnish an autonomous arbitration system in Texas, to advance and protect the economic, political, and social interests of our members.

Our Members . . .

The members of 

THE TEXAS COTTON ASSOCIATION 

merchandise cotton produced by thousands of cotton growers in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. The members provide a ready market for the producers' cotton and maintain a steady supply and orderly flow of the cotton to textile mills around the world. They underwrite the risk from the time and the place the producer elects to sell his cotton until the foreign and domestic customers require delivery. It is our responsibility to deliver the cotton as efficiently and as economically as possible, and at the same time permit the producer to realize the maximum return for his effort.
