LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Fields of white cotton once stretched as far as the eye could see across the fertile Mississippi Delta, but now many of those acres are flush with green corn stalks.

U.S. cotton production peaked in 2005 and has been sliding since as farmers switch from growing fiber to food. The reasons are many: Corn prices have been strong, and it's more profitable because it takes less labor to produce. Corn's lower production costs also make it a less risky investment than cotton.
