- Title
Fall in US cotton output may be a boon for India.
- Abstract
The article concerns the implication of a decrease in cotton production in the U.S. for Indian cotton exporters in 2007. It is inferred that a decline in U.S. cotton output may result in a 20% increase in exports and 10% increase in prices compared to last year. The trend is supported with the increasing demand for Indian cotton as reported by the Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (CIIT). It was noted that the shift of U.S. farmers from cotton to grain crops had given India an advantage to overtake the U.S. as the second largest producer of cotton in the world.
