The global cottonseed supply landscape in 2024 shows China and India leading, with China demonstrating a stable increase in production at 0.18% year-on-year, while India slightly declined by 0.78%. Brazil and Australia posted significant growth at 9.69% and 10.66%, indicating potential expansion in their markets. Conversely, the United States saw a decrease of 6.19%, impacting North America's cottonseed supply.
Other notable trends include Paraguay and Chad, with impressive growth rates of 47.27% and 42.73%, respectively, suggesting these countries may become more prominent suppliers. Mexico and Egypt experienced significant declines, with -9.72% and -6.39% respectively.
Looking forward, the cottonseed supply is expected to be influenced by unpredictable factors such as climate change and geopolitical tensions.
