Surge in U.S. Cotton Exports to India Amid Trade Shifts and Price Drops?
Between February and April 2025, U.S. upland cotton exports to India soared to 155,260 bales, a significant rise from 25,901 bales during the same period last year. This increase is attributed to declining U.S.
cotton prices and escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China, which have led to reduced American cotton exports to China. Consequently, U.S. cotton, particularly from Texas and other regions, is finding a growing market in India
India, traditionally a major cotton producer, is facing declining yields, turning it into a net importer. The Cotton Association of India has lowered its production estimate by 250,000 bales to 30.1 million bales for the 2023–24 season, marking a 7.84% drop from the previous year.
To bridge the anticipated shortfall of 2.5 million bales, India is increasing imports, primarily of Extra Long Staple (ELS) cotton from the U.S., which benefits from a 10% duty exemption and offers superior quality ?.?
This shift in trade dynamics is reshaping global cotton markets, with India emerging as a key destination for U.S. cotton exports amid changing international trade relations.?
