  • Major Factors Affecting World Cotton Price Behavior Prepared in Response to Brazil’S WTO Challenge of the U.S
    Major Factors Affecting World Cotton Price Behavior Prepared in Response to Brazil’s WTO Challenge Of the U.S. Cotton Program1 Executive Summary In November 2002 the Brazilian government requested consultations with the United States concerning virtually all aspects of the United States cotton program, then in February 2003 requested the establishment of a Panel to hear the dispute. Among Brazil’s claims was that the U.S. cotton program had depressed world cotton prices causing serious prejudice to Brazilian growers, especially during the years 1999-2002. The following analysis demonstrates that there were a number of influences, completely unrelated to the U.S. cotton program that served to depress world cotton prices during the 1999-2002 period. Brazil’s submission would have one believe that the world cotton situation began in 1998 and nothing influenced world cotton markets prior to that time, or that other countries even produce and export cotton. In fact, some context prior to 1998 is essential to understanding the unusual events that did occur between 1999 and 2002. Furthermore, 1998 was an unusual year for U.S. production, making it an inappropriate basis for comparison, as Brazil does whenever it is convenient. World cotton prices fell steadily during the 7-year period from 1994/95, when the A-index reached a record of 91 cents, until 2001/02, when it averaged 42 cents, the lowest in 30 years. A number of economic and policy changes account for the persistence in recent years of unusually low cotton prices. The production of competing synthetic fibers, stimulated by subsidies for locating and operating plants, exploded during the 1990’s, putting downward pressure on world cotton prices.

An agronomist by training, Gérard ’s professional life was in service to Haiti’s agricultural community. Early in his career he was involved in cotton—both growing it and providing various forms of support to other farmers who were growing it. Gérard had an encyclopedic memory of what many thought to be the lost legacy of cotton production in Haiti. Now his own legacy will include an invaluable contribution to reintroducing cotton to once again become an important cornerstone of the country’s agricultural community. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study was commissioned by Impact Farming (IF) to look into This study was authored by Chris Kaput*, Remillot Levielle the feasibility of reintroducing cotton to Haiti as an export crop and Gérard Nozine.

  • India Cotton and Products Update July 2019
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY. Voluntary - Public Date: 7/26/2019 GAIN Report Number: IN9067 India Post: New Delhi Cotton and Products Update July 2019 Report Categories: Cotton and Products Approved By: Lazaro Sandoval Prepared By: Dhruv Sood Report Highlights: Post estimates marketing year (MY) 2019/20 cotton production at 29 million 480 lb. bales (37.1 million 170-kilogram bales/6.3 MMT) with a planting area of 12.5 million hectares. Planted area for Kharif 2019 season in Central India is five percent higher than last year due to high domestic seed cotton prices and delayed monsoon rains that limited alternate crop planting options. MY 2019/20 mill consumption is lowered due to weak global demand, which is carried over from the current 2018/19 season. While export prospects have diminished, imports are expected to remain stable as they remain price competitive against domestic supplies. Page 1 of 10 Area and Production: Post estimates India’s marketing year (MY) 2019/20 cotton production at 29 million 480 lb. bales (37.1 million 170-kilogram bales/6.3 MMT) with a planting area of 12.5 million hectares. Post’s area estimate is 100,000 hectares (0.8 percent) lower than official USDA estimate. Post anticipates marginal reductions in the cotton areas of Central Maharashtra due to a growing shift towards soybeans, and the southern state of Karnataka where cotton is expected to be replaced by pulses (tur) and corn due to state government targets aimed at increasing the production of food crops.

Oriented north. Missouri River Missouri River Unit, L-575 Fremont County, Iowa Atchison County, MO May, 2013 PROJECT DATE Finding of No Significant Impact Missouri River Levee Unit L-575 The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District (Corps), in cooperation with the project sponsors, propose to implement levee repairs, including two large-scale levee setbacks, on the Missouri River Levee Unit L-575 under the authority of Public Law 84-99. The setbacks are located in Fremont County, Iowa, along the left descending bank of the Missouri River between river miles 566 and 555. A Programmatic Environmental Assessment for PL 84-99 Levee Rehabilitation Projects and Advanced Measure Responses in the Corps was finalized in December 2011 and is incorporated by reference herein. In addition, a tiered Environmental Assessment (EA) was prepared in December of 2011 for the non-setback levee repairs that were initially identified as the recommended plan. Upon further planning and design considerations, setback alternatives were incorporated into a new recommended plan. As such, this EA serves to revise the original tiered EA to include the additional large-scale setback construction activities. Due to emergency conditions, necessity to complete levee fixes in a timely manner, and the many planning uncertainties and coordination involved with this project, preparation of this revised EA occurred during construction of the setbacks.
