Cotton production in India is expected to decline
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) expects cotton yields in the 2020/21 season to be 28.78 million bales (480 pounds each). This is 2% less than in the previous season. The decrease is due to the reduction in agricultural land allotted for cotton in India. Note that Indian farmers mention a shortage of labor in agriculture due to quarantine announced by the government amidst the coronavirus pandemic. This may become an additional reason of India’s yields reduction. This country is the 2nd cotton producer in the world after China.
