| Desc | agricultural research committee: Resources were diverted from longer term investments to more immediate, high-impact investments in 2015 to counter the present market. Significant program activities of the year included: U.S. cotton producers raised the bar in sustainability. Ten percent of U.S. cotton producers completed the Natural Resource Survey, which documented improvements in soil, water and fertilizer and demonstrated how stewardship is tied to increased yield. Fiber quality breakthroughs were introduced. Using breeding tools, germplasm, and trained scientists from the public sector, all of the major cotton planting seed companies now offer varieties with fiber length and strength at the top of the CCC loan premiums. Part of the support for these introductions comes from long term fiber and spinning testing by the Cotton Incorporated Product Evaluation and Product Development laboratories. Future fiber advancements are also likely with new discoveries in fiber quality: fiber length can be altered with simple pathway manipulations of vitamin C content; and spectrographic evaluation of cellulose crystallinity allows simultaneous increase in strength and elongation. "Future Farm" utilizes big data to improve field management and breeding. In 2015, the Future Farm concept was elevated with High-throughput phenotyping for cotton breeders and various management tools field tested for cotton growers. Data collected during harvest to improve ginning was evaluated and shown to be promising. Shifting microbial populations with surface residues that moderate daily temperature swings was shown to improve soil and cotton health. Several high impact deliverables advanced the breeding of higher yield cotton varieties. The week long Cotton Breeder Tour was attended by 135 people. A 64k SNP-Chip was released to facilitate marker aided breeding. The Upland cotton genome was published and immediately put to use in cotton breeding. Growers converted high yield potential varieties into bales. To support yield gain management, significant deliverables included: expanding variety testing and reporting on specialized software, increasing implementation of irrigation management in the Mid-South and South East, multiple states coordinating insect control research and outreach, and expanding information regarding soil health and fertility. We delivered resistant weed control programs for all major growing areas. University and USDA-ARS cooperators created workable resistant weed control prescriptions that include diverse herbicides, cover crops, and weed seed suppression. The cooperators also uncovered new resistance to Liberty and Reflex/Valor herbicides; created a clear understanding of cottons yield sensitivity to auxin herbicide, both rate and timing; and successfully elevated herbicide resistance stewardship within the farming and weed scientist communities. Electronic outreach was expanded with new and continuing platforms. The Cotton Cultivated Web site was launched to translate 40+ years of AERD investment into producer expertise. "Focus on Cotton" Web site further expanded in 2015 reaching 70,000 viewers since early 2013. Various university electronic outreach tools were extended across the Cotton Belt. Cotton diseases were successfully managed despite growing threats. Ongoing efforts in Fusarium, Target Spot, Verticillium, and viruses limited the damage from these diseases. Two-gene Nematode host plant resistance was released by multiple seed companies. Bacterial blight research was expanded with new technologies to detect and identify the bacteria in seed and leaves. A brush-delinting replacement for acid-delinting was introduced to cotton breeders. Acid-delinting poses a safety concern to seed, workers, and the environment. Multi-year development and testing of prototypes led to commercial adoption of breeder-scale brush-delinting. The Cotton Winter Nursery was relocated from Mexico to Costa Rica. An experienced on-site manager was hired and a suitable site was established that is safe and convenient for breeders and favorable for seed production. The ULGCS research necessary to write and submit documents for full U.S deregulation was completed. | Desc |

| Desc | The Global Supply Chain Marketing committee consists of two divisions: Cotton Management System Software (CMS) and Global Supply Chain Marketing (GSCM). The CMS development and maintenance teams released MILLNET software updates that allowed users to handle customer requests. The core of the MILLNET 5.0 software was completed with testing and final conversion programs being targeting in 2016. The CMS teams assisted customers over 3,700 times during the year and conducted 51 service visits. CMS also added seven new MILLNET licenses representing 500,000 bales of new cotton being managed by EFS. The GSCM division conducted more than 760 meetings with 480 companies in 30 different countries during 2015. Marketing objectives for these meetings included the presentation of trend information, discussion of new technology innovations and product concepts, technical assistance, and discussion of the Cotton LEADS program and the related topic of the sustainability of U.S. cotton. In working with industry, the division executed 21 confidential disclosure agreements, 10 technology licensing agreements, and 76 trademark usage agreements for use of the Seal of Cotton or one of the many technology trademarks owned by Cotton Incorporated. Staff of GSCM participated in 17 global tradeshows and events in 2015, which resulted in opportunities to meet with over 1,400 industry contacts during these events. In addition to attending tradeshows, specific technology-scouting company visits were conducted. Marketing cotton technologies and developments for outerwear remains a priority because cotton fabrics are not typically considered suitable for outerwear apparel. Cotton is not thought to have performance attributes like repellency, wind resistance, and insulating properties. To counter these assumptions, a marketing package with information on insulating cotton fabrics was developed. The fabrications featured in this package were developed by Cotton Incorporateds Product Development team. The marketing message focuses on the technical fabric constructions and highlights performance attributes including low air permeability (indicating wind resistance) and low heat transfer (indicating insulating properties). Through two major efforts in 2015, division staff marketed the sustainability and responsible production aspects of U.S. cotton production. The first effort is the Farm Tour program, which in 2015 involved 59 attendees from 31 retailer and brand companies. The tour covers a visit to farms, direct meetings with cotton producers, a tour of a warehouse and a gin and finally, a tour of the USDA Memphis Classing facility. The second major effort to address sustainability is through participation in the Cotton LEAD program. In its second full year, the program added more than 105 partners in 2015 and now encompasses 354 partners in 25 companies. Staff in the division worked closely with the other organizations in the Cotton LEADS program to conduct six regional meetings with program partners in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Mexico City, Lima, Peru; Tokyo; and North Carolina. Lastly, the Cotton University marketing site has more than 13,500 registered users and participation from 1,977 companies. A new "Business Center" was launched in late 2015 to provide a stronger and more direct engagement with industry decision makers. Through Cotton University , webinars were offered in 2015. There were also 50 technical workshops conducted in 2015 with 1,757 industry participants representing 175 different brands and retailers. | Desc |

| Desc | The Consumer Marketing Committee is comprised of the Consumer Marketing Division and the Corporate Strategy and Program Metrics The Consumer Marketing Committee is comprised of the Consumer Marketing Division and the Corporate Strategy and Program Metrics Division (CSPM). The Consumer Marketing Division is tasked with creating awareness of, and interest in, cotton among consumer and trade audiences. This is accomplished through an integrated platform of traditional and digital advertising, engagement with the media, and activities and events that directly contact consumers. In April, Cottons long-running celebrity-rich "The Fabric of My Life" campaign was completed. The new, highly personal and emotional campaign, "Cotton. Your Favorite for a Reason" launched immediately after the completion of the celebrity ad series. "Favorites" was based on over a year of consumer research which underscored the need to find a way to get consumers to truly care what their clothes are made of. By using 15 individuals as story-tellers, we invited consumers to hear real stories from real people talking about their affinity and relationships with their favorite cotton-rich apparel. The campaign utilized :30 second and :15 second commercials appearing on both television and online, plus a series of video 'stories' that focus on each individual story and garment separately. Recognition increased by 4% since the first wave of campaign activity to 27% averaging 26% recognition among females and 31% among fashion females. In 2015, Internet Search advertising played an increasing role as Cotton sought out opportunities to align the proper audiences with relevant content. Another critical component in the Cotton digital program was the increasing reliance on third-party media partners to produce and place cotton content on their websites and across the internet. A new trade print campaign was also produced and launched in 2015 with ads focusing on sustainability, services, innovations and consumer preference. Cotton's generic promotional program in China continued to thrive. This years videos featuring two attractive young Chinese 'key opinion leaders' achieved more than 20 million plays by mid-October. The Blue Jeans Go Green (BJGG) denim recycling program continued its long string of successful years. Sheryl Crow represented the program as spokesperson in 2015. An up and coming young celebrity, Anna Sophia Robb, also acted as a social media and media spokesperson for BJGG. In 2015 Madewell, a denim-focused retailer with over 100 outlets, initiated an ongoing denim collection program supported by marketing outreach. Public Relations (PR) was responsible for overseeing public outreach for Sheryl Crow's support of the Blue Jeans Go Green (BJGG) denim recycling program, including a memorial 10th anniversary Habitat for Humanity build of ten houses in New Orleans in mid-summer. Ms. Crow also served as a spokesperson for the program in a Satellite TV Media Tour for cotton this past spring. Other company activities were featured in continuous PR outreach along with sustainability messaging, Lifestyle Monitor articles, and reports on economic and behavioral research findings. Strategic Alliances managed a four part series of full site take-over cotton promotions on Rue La La, which is a major digital flash sale site for contemporary merchandise. The program reaches Rue La Las large (14 million+), highly targeted (young female clothing enthusiasts) consumer audience with cotton messaging and retail boutiques full of interesting, high quality cotton offerings for women, men, kids and home. The program was designed to take the Favorites theme and messaging directly to the consumer at the point of sale. CSPM led efforts to identify opportunities and threats for cotton using market intelligence data gathered through ongoing studies of consumer attitudes from the Lifestyle Monitor survey, assessments of cotton's share at retail through the Retail Monitor survey, evaluations of consumer reactions to reductions of cotton fiber content in apparel and home textiles products at retail through the Customer Comments Research study, and comprehensive global economic research and analysis. Work completed by CSPM during 2015 includes, but is not limited to the review of data on more than 100,000 products offered at retail in the U.S. in order to evaluate cotton's market share in key categories and to communicate (to internal staff) those areas that are under threat; the evaluation of 6,000 U.S. consumers to understand key trends and market opportunities for cotton products in the areas of denim, fiber substitution, online shopping, odor issues, cottonseed oil awareness and back-to-school shopping; the continued analysis of customer comment research that includes over 625,000 customer reviews, posted from 2010 to first half of 2015 on 50,000+ adult and children's apparel, home textiles, and intimate products; the management of global quantitative research to garner insights into consumers expectations for cotton in their feminine hygiene products; and the delivery of market outlook presentations related to changes in cotton prices and the impact on the supply chain in the U.S. and internationally. CSPM also designed and developed a fabric weight study to assess consumer's preferred fabric weights in their clothes as well as a new brand tracking study to measure recognition and impact of Cotton Incorporateds new ad campaign and marketing efforts. CSPM responded to nearly 200 information requests, participated in over 225 meetings and presentations, authored more than 150 publications, videos, and podcasts, and worked on more than 40 projects. | Desc |
