In 2023, India, China, and the United States emerged as the top cottonseed producers, with India leading the pack. Positive production trends were observed in India, Australia, Mexico, and Benin, driven by slight increases. Conversely, China, Pakistan, and Uzbekistan noted declines. Notable variations were seen in century-long contributors like Burkina Faso and Uganda, with remarkable annual increases.
Future trends to be monitored include climatic shifts influencing production in key regions, developments in agricultural technology to boost yields, and policy changes impacting trade and production dynamics. Keeping a close eye on emerging producers in Africa and Asia will also be pivotal.
