Which code does this activity belong in?
Cotton Farming establishments grow cotton as their primary agricultural activity. The boundary with All Other Crop Farming occurs when cotton does not account for at least one-half of the establishment's total agricultural production value; such mixed-crop operations belong in All Other Crop Farming. Cotton growers are distinct from those growing tobacco, sugarcane, or hay, which are classified in their respective specialized farming codes.
