Factors Affecting Georgia Row Crop Acreage• Relative Prices (cotton, corn, peanut, soybeans & wheat) • Government Programs – used to be major driving force• Infrastructure
– Handling Facilities - Cotton Gins, Peanut Buying Points, Grain Elevators, Port– Processors - Shelling Plants, Feed Mills, Oilseed Processors, Ethanol Plant,
Flour Mill, Textile Mill– Ownership – more farmers share in cotton gins, peanut buying points, sheller
• Risk Management– Crop insurance – Marketing Cooperatives & Contracts
• Access to Capital & Capital Costs – Operating Loan– Machinery and Equipment – cotton & peanuts capital intensive, more leasing
• Technology– Seed, Chemicals, Irrigation
• Cost of Inputs• Crop Rotation • Weather • Water
Georgia Trends in Row Crops
• Increased acres• More interest in corn and soybeans • Growth in grain infrastructure• Increase in irrigation units• Clearing of edges of fields and pine plantations
brought back into production• More corn in cotton, peanut rotation.

SWOT Analysis for SE Row CropsStrengths
• Productive Soils• Water resources• Longer season• Sandy soils and climate for
peanuts, cotton
Weaknesses• Need fertility help• Topsoil depth• Dryland yields • Smaller, irregular fields• Grains infrastructure
Opportunities• Diversification• Respond to market signals• Proximity to ports• Specialty markets
Threats• Climate change• Pests• Population growth• Water use & availability• Southern specific cultivars
