On August 26, 2021, in Federal Register Notice (FRN) 86 FR 47541, the Agricultural Marketing Service issued a request for comments on amending the Cotton Board Rules and Regulations to decrease the fees on imported cotton.

The cotton assessment will decrease from $0.011562 per kilogram to $0.011136 per kilogram, effective October 25, 2021, unless “significant adverse comment is received by September 27, 2021.”
