Virtual Format Set For 2021 Beltwide Cotton Conferences

The National Cotton Council will conduct the 2021 Beltwide Cotton Conferences virtually in January due to continued concerns regarding COVID-19’s spread. Planed for January 5 -7, the conferences bring together industry stakeholders. Those planning to participate in the 2021 live-stream event must register at the event website, cotton.org/beltwide/, which will be updated as program information becomes available. Registration will continue after the virtual 2021 event concludes to permit registered participants access to the event’s on-demand content. Registration costs for the 2021 conference have been reduced due to the virtual format, $180 for NCC members, university and USDA researchers, extension personnel, associations and consultants, $500 for non-U.S. research, extension, associations, and consultants, $350 for non-NCC members, and $75 for students. The 2021 event will begin on January 5 with the half-day Cotton Consultants Conference. The 11 cotton technical conferences, which now includes the Cotton Sustainability Conference, will provide updates on research and current and emerging technology.
