Abstract:
King Cotton may make a comeback in the Chowan County area, with the help of a cooperative insect control program organized by the county’s farmers. Cotton crops declined due to lack of manpower to harvest it and low profits, but Chowan’s soil is more suitable to cotton than to some of the other crops in the county.
