Report Highlights:
Brazil’s cotton harvest, despite delays in some regions, is advancing successfully. Favorable weather during the final stages and enhanced cultivation practices contributed to robust production levels and exceptional fiber quality.
While certain areas faced yield challenges due to irregular rainfall, expansion in planted area and advances in crop management have sustained output.
Domestic consumption growth remains relatively steady, and exports continue to rise, with Brazil successfully diversifying its international markets beyond the People's Republic of China (PRC).
Despite tighter profit margins, the country maintains its position as a leading global cotton exporter, with stable domestic use and healthy stock levels.
