A Legacy of Cotton and Confidence in NexGen Varieties
Right in the heart of cotton country, Richardson Farms and Richardson Gin in Marston, Missouri, have been deeply rooted in cotton production since 1928. With nearly a century of experience farming and ginning cotton, their operation continues to focus on what is best for their land and long-term sustainability. Cotton remains their crop of choice because their land is especially well suited for it, and the infrastructure they have built over generations is designed to support its production. For the past eight years, they have trusted the proven performance of NexGen® cotton varieties to deliver the yields and quality they depend on.
As many would agree, NG 3195 B3XF continues to stand out as a favorite. It’s “an overall workhorse variety that works well across many soil types, and its consistent yield and fiber quality make it a top choice year after year” says Blake Richardson. This elite variety has excellent adaptability – responding well to irrigation while still thriving in dryland conditions, and overcoming stressful growing environments to produce a top-quality cotton crop.
“We have also had an overall positive experience with the new ThryvOn® variety NG 3572 B3TXF, which tends to grow off faster and healthier with noticeably less insect pressure throughout the season” Richardson continued. “We keep planting NexGen because of the consistent yields and quality from proven varieties, as well as the excellent customer service from our sales representative and the company overall. I would encourage any cotton growers to choose NexGen because of Americot’s® commitment to the cotton industry through the proven varieties and technology they bring to the cotton seed industry.”
The past several years have presented significant challenges for the cotton industry, yet the resilience, perseverance, and adaptability demonstrated by Richardson Farms remain central to its survival. Thank you for continuing to trust us and plant NexGen varieties, and for your inspiring commitment to the cotton industry.
We are proud to stand alongside farmers like you!
