Kansas farmers are planting more cotton as climate change redraws agricultural maps (NPR)

March 09, 2022


NPR published an interview on “All Things Considered” on how cotton farming is inching north into the Midwest. Climate change combined with dwindling water resources and new infrastructure means states like Kansas are becoming cotton country. Research fellow Ricky Robertson says cotton’s move into Kansas illustrates a broader trend as climate change redraws agricultural maps across the country. 

“We need to be open to trying new things – new crops, new rotations, new planting dates, the works.” Republished by numerous NPR network stations including Nevada Public Radio, Public Radio from UA Little Rock, North Country Public Radio
