Resumo: | The organic cotton market has been growing internationally and presents a potential opportunity for producers.  This article evaluates prices and returns for organic cotton production in Texas using a stochastic frontier approach.  Organic producers were found to be more profitable relative to conventional production, but the analysis showed that organic producers were relatively less technically efficient.
