Farmers Tuco Gin Inc.

Abernathy, Hale County, Texas

The Farmers Tuco Gin in Abernathy is still operational. While this photograph was taken in February 2018, remnant cotton seed from the previous season's harvest is plainly visible. Like other regional gins, this structure features numerous additions and enhancements to facilitate new equipment and expanded operations.
