Warm.
Yes, cotton can grow in the Midwest region of the United States. States like Missouri, Illinois, and Kansas have ideal climate and soil conditions for cotton cultivation.
cotton would grow around flordia's everglades.
No, cotton requires a hotter climate than we have, and cotton is a crop that needs a lot of water.
Cotton needs a warm climate (about 68 degrees) and proper irrigation. It also needs 100+ days to grow.
because they grow well in that climate
Wisconsin does not grow cotton. It grows alfalfa, field corn, potatoes and vegetables for freezing or canning.
The growing of cotton requires a relatively warm climate. This the South had in places like Alabama and Georgia. The North, however, was allowed to buy cotton from the South during the war by the special permit issued by the US Treasury.
An example is that cotton needs 200 frost free days to grow. Sixty miles south of here cotton is a major crop but we can't grow cotton in Amarillo, Texas. We can grow wheat and grass though. And that is why we have so many cows in the Texas Panhandle. I can venture to guess that it is not warm enough at your location that you can grow sugar cane which takes a very moist and hot climate.
Wisconsin is generally not considered an ideal place to grow cotton due to its cooler climate and shorter growing season compared to traditional cotton-growing regions like the Southern United States. Cotton requires warm temperatures and a long frost-free period to thrive, which Wisconsin typically lacks. Additionally, the state's soil and moisture conditions may not be optimal for cotton cultivation. Therefore, while it may be possible to grow cotton in Wisconsin with specific varieties and practices, it is not well-suited for large-scale production.
A temperate climate. They like a winter.

Climate required for optimum growth of cotton plant is hot and humid climate.
