Pakistan: Cotton and Products Update

Based on current market arrivals, Pakistan’s Marketing Year (MY) 2019/20 cotton production is estimated at 6.2 million 480 lb bales, down 22 percent from the previous estimate and 17 percent from the last year’s production level mainly due to intense hot weather that prevailed during critical stages of crop growth coupled with severe pest infestations and high input prices. Uncertain conditions in domestic and international markets also affected cotton production. The shortfall in domestic supplies will be bridged through imports, with 2019/20 imports forecast at 4.4 million 480 lb bales.
