  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Post/New marketing year (MY) 2016/17 total Mexican cotton production is forecast to decrease approximately 4 percent due to an expected decrease in planted area. Total domestic cotton consumption in MY 2016/17 is forecast to increase slightly from the previous year to 2 million bales (each bale weighs 480 pounds). The Government of Mexico (GOM) continues to support cotton growers and growth of the Mexican textile industry in general. The United States should remain the main supplier of cotton to Mexico which accounts for almost 100 percent of Mexico’s total cotton imports.
