Chopping cotton isn't really chopping cotton. When you are "chopping cotton" you are chopping down weeds that are growing in the rows that the cotton is planted in. Johnson grass and stuff like that.

What does the saying chopping high cotton mean?
It goes back to the days of "stoop labor" in the cotton fields, where workers would work bent at the waist from dawn to dusk, "choppin' cotton." About the best they could expect out of their day was to be choppin' high cotton, so that they didn't have to stoop over as much. The above answer is false! When you "Chop cotton", actually you chop the weeds that are growing around the cotton plants. More importantly you never have to STOOP when chopping cotton whether the cotton plants are 6 Ft. tall or 2 Ins. tall. I was born on a cotton farm in 1936 in Mississippi & have many years of intimate knowlege of the laborious proccess. "COTTON PICKER"
