Bangladesh: Cotton and Products Update

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   BG2024-0012
In marketing year (MY) 2024/25, Post forecasts cotton acreage and production slightly lower at 45,000 hectares and 153,000 bales, due to heavy rain in some cotton growing districts during the seed sowing period. For MY 2024/25, Post also forecasts higher imports of raw cotton at 8 million bales, driven by higher demand in the RMG sector and a lower projection of fabric imports. India, Brazil, Benin, and the United States remain the largest suppliers of cotton to Bangladesh.
