Spain: Cotton and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   SP2022-0010

The drought in Andalucía is anticipated to drive down area planted to cotton in Spain in MY2022/23. However, cotton crop area is highly inelastic given the few alternative crops available, and the fact that a significant part of the CAP payment to cotton continues to be linked to production partially offsets the potential area reduction. However, a steeper decline in cotton production is projected as irrigation water limitations will push yields down.
