New York —Cotton Incorporated, the research and marketing company for U.S. cotton growers, will present its Engineered Fiber Selection (EFS) System software at a conference to be held in China, April 10-12, at the Regent Hotel in Shanghai.
Introduced to U.S. manufacturers in 1982, the EFS system is a group of programs that provides authoritative cotton management and analysis information, as well as electronic communication among mills, ginners, producers and merchants.
Berrye Worsham, president and ceo of Cotton Inc., states, “Since its introduction, the EFS System has evolved from an innovative concept to an industry standard in the United States and Europe.” He added that nearly half of China's cotton imports over the past decade have been of U.S. origin.
