Resumo: 	Producers’ preferences for cottonseed with respect to price, seed type, yield, and fiber quality are examined by a willingness-to-pay approach via mail surveys.  Results indicate a positive willingness to pay (WTP) for technology relative to conventional cottonseed, and WTP increases with the level of technology.  Yield and quality also show a positive WTP.  Larger farms have a higher WTP for technology, and farms with more farm labor have a lower WTP for technology.  These results suggest economies of size in technology adoption (biotechnology is not size-neutral) and that labor and biotechnology are direct substitutes.
