Brazil's cotton exports seen growing about 10% in 2025/26 season, exporters group says

Brazilian cotton exports in the 2025/26 season are expected to grow by about 10% compared to the previous cycle to some 3.2 million metric tons, the president of Brazil's association of cotton exporters Anea told Reuters.

THE OUTLOOK

  • Anea's president Dawid Wajs said the expected increase in exports should be driven by local competitiveness, diversification of buyers and higher purchases from India.

  • India's purchases have been boosted by New Delhi's exemption of cotton import tariffs until December 31, Wajs said.

  • India's purchases represented about 16% of Brazil's cotton exports so far this season, he said.

    BY THE NUMBERS

  • Brazilian cotton exports through October fell 7% year-on-year to about 677,000 tons due to a delayed harvest, according to Anea.

  • Exports have been increasing and are expected to continue rising, Wajs said, noting Brazil has a significant stockpile to export.

  • Official data released on Thursday by Brazil's government showed cotton exports rising 34.4% in November from a year earlier to about 402,000 tons.
