Brazil is one of the world¿s leading cotton producers and an important competitor of the U.S. in Asian and European cotton markets. This situation has come about as a result of trade liberalization, structural transformation of the Brazilian economy, and the emergence of new cotton producing regions using advanced technologies and benefiting from targeted government support. Brazil¿s access to additional agricultural land and recent favorable cotton prices suggest the country¿s cotton production could rise even more than previously expected. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find report.

“World cotton consumption and production could reach between 69.9 and 75.6 million bales by 1985, and 75.2 and 83.6 million bales by 1990 under two alternative assumptions about world economic growth. A reduced rate of decline in cotton’s share of the world fiber market is expected because of increasing affluence in developing countries where cotton represents a high proportion of total fiber consumed, a stabilization of cotton’s share in developed nations, worldwide population increases, and expected increases in manmade fiber prices. U.S. cotton production could total 10 to 13 million bales by 1990, depending on world income growth, while exports could range from 3.6 to 6.3 million bales.”
