Books Built Around the Crop Year
Gaines County has long ranked among the top cotton counties in Texas, and it grows a large share of the state’s peanuts too, mostly on irrigated ground. Seminole is the market town for those farms and for the oil and gas fields that have produced in the county since the 1930s.
Farm books need more than a checkbook register. Input costs, crop insurance, government program payments, equipment loans and land rent all need their own place. The same goes for the welding shops, builders and equipment dealers in town, many of them family businesses, in a county where a Mennonite farming community has been part of the economy since the late 1970s.
