Cotton outlook warns of tight supply next season
L L Smith's Daily Cotton Letter from New Orleans on June 21 says July 2 crop reports hint a smaller yield than last year’s 11,065,000. Current conditions average 67.7 against 69.0, with June 25 outlook near 71.2 and a 10 year average of 74.0. Acreage up 7.7 but a season end crop around 10.5 million seems likely, risking a world shortage and potential economic disruption amid European turmoil and German coal and food supply strains.
