Post forecasts Brazil’s 2016/17 cotton area at 910,000 hectares (ha), a five percent drop compared to the previous year. The reduction is due to a lower than expected planted area in Mato Grosso state, the largest cotton producing state in Brazil. Exports are forecast to reach 3 million bales and domestic consumption is forecast at 3.0 million bales.
