Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) enters into Cotton Storage Agreements (CSA) with private individuals and companies to allow warehouse operators to store cotton owned by CCC or pledged as security to CCC for marketing assistance loans.
Warehouse operators wanting a Cotton Storage Agreement are encouraged to review the regulations and guidelines and agreement documents.
