Excerpt from Some Economic Considerations in Storing Seed Cotton at Gins In Mississippi seed cotton insurance was a major cost item, since basic annual rates provided a minimum of per $100 valuation. This rate resulted in a seed cotton insurance cost of per bale at each gin for an assumed storage period of 60 days. In terms of the actual utilization of such storage Space, this limited study indicated a high per-bale cost of seed cotton storage for the several types of large-scale permanent facilities available for appraisal. The fact that relatively few gins have met this recent problem by erecting elaborate large-volume storage structures bears out this conclusion. At mam, r gins, growers' vehicles and trailers pile up and serve as a medium of temporary storage. Obviously, however, growers need a reasonable turnaround of their equipment.
