Cover Photo: In 2007, West Texas cotton farmers harvested one of the best crops many have ever taken to the gin.  Irrigated yields pushing, and in some cases exceeding, four bales per acre were far from rare, and more than a few dryland farmers had yields averaging better than two bales per acre.  When the cotton bolls opened, observers said the fields looked like a heavy snow had fallen.
