Cotton Shortage Shapes U S Market and Prices
A Tucson Citizen summary notes a global cotton shortage with the United States crop down from an expected 16 million bales to about 11.7 million due to drought pests and disease. Growers hold 4 to 6 million bales hoping for fair prices, citing higher production costs and labor needs. The forecast shows reduced military demand as war ends, leaving little cotton for civilian use and ongoing price resistance by growers.
