India Displaces U.S in China

For the first time, it appears that India will have a larger share of China’s imports than the United States.
Tight U.S. supplies (low carry-in stocks and production) are in contrast to abundant Indian supplies (large
carry-in stocks and higher production). With world prices now substantially above the Indian support
price, its cotton is moving freely into the world market. Total U.S. exports are forecast lower and
nowhere else is this as evident as in China, where the United States has historically dominated the market,
but is now a distant second, with only a 25 percent share during the Aug. - Feb. period.
This is a dramatic shift from the previous year, when falling world cotton prices coupled with India’s
higher domestic support prices rendered Indian cotton uncompetitive. This enabled the United States to
aggressively market cotton, resulting in an unusually high 60 percent share in China and dramatically
lower U.S. carry-over stocks. Low world prices continued downward pressure on U.S. production while
in contrast; India’s high support prices induced more domestic production, further increasing exportable
supplies.
Underlying these short term market changes are India’s ongoing improvements in ginning practices and
export logistics, which are enhancing its long term competitiveness vis-a-vis U. S. cotton.

U.S and world prices continued to rise in

March, following the New York futures
prices. Futures prices climbed in response
to tighter world supplies
