economic-engineering model, was used to simulate the
ginning in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas with the cost
of cotton ginning in Tamaulipas, Mexico. GINMODEL, an
reasons for the higher costs in Mexico were due to lower
representative gins from both regions. The results of the
study indicate that the costs per bale of cotton ginning in
Tamaulipas are higher than 'in the Lower Rio Grande Valley.
The objective of this study was to compare the cost of cotton
The two Mexican gins studied had per bale costs of $59.52
