The past 18 months have challenged the global cotton trade as never before. After surviving a virtual collapse of prices not seen since the Great Depression, global over-capacity has become a serious problem for the long-term vitality of the cotton trade. Further, dramatic changes in the international textile industry have resulted in new consumption trends. This has led to enormous problems for merchants, co-ops, producers and consumers of cotton. At the same time, cotton has lost market share to polyester on a global basis. As if these problems were not bad enough, provisions of the Farm Bill are having unforeseen effects on the market - effects that will have long-term implications.
Recognizing that basic market statistics are widely available, "Worldwide Cotton and Polyester Fiber Supply and Demand Outlook" builds on those data to establish a realistic forecast for future consumption and production. Because of our unique perspective of the cotton and textile businesses, our insight into the market is leveraged with supporting quantitative and qualitative information.
