Pakistan : Weekly Cotton Review: Rates hiked: PCGA asks government to formulate 'clear' price strategyKARACHI: Cotton prices saw an increase after some volatility. Undue pressure from government sources to buy cotton at the government-fixed intervention price of Rs 8,500 per 40 kg resulted in a crisis in the cotton market, as ginners decided to shut down their factories.The Pakistan Cotton Ginners Association (PCGA) has demanded the government to prepare a clear strategy to buy cotton and oil at government-fixed prices and immediately remove the illegal tax on banola and also solve the problem of electricity. Cotton farmers will be in trouble in the confrontation between the government and the ginners. Cotton crop will also be affected.Senator Seher Kamran said that the government should intervene and take steps to protect the interests of cotton farmers.On the instructions of former President Asif Ali Zardari, the Sindh government has issued a notification to fix the intervention price of footi at Rs 8500 per 40 kg.After unusual volatility in cotton prices during the last week, the local cotton market remained steady as cotton farmers and ginners started panic selling during Eidul Azha holiday, leading to an unusual fall in cotton prices. Cotton prices fell to a low of Rs 16,000 to Rs 16,200 per head. But the price correction continued at the beginning of the week under review. Finally, the price of cotton started rising from Wednesday evening. Cotton rates in Sindh ranged between Rs 17,000 to Rs 17,300 per head, while cotton rates in Punjab ranged between Rs 17,500 to Rs 17,700 per head.On the other hand, on Wednesday, the DC of Sanghar district of Sindh province, the country's largest producer of cotton, directed ginners to buy cotton at the government-fixed price of Rs 8,500 per 40 kg. Ginners refused to buy footy at the price announced by the government.As a result, cotton farmers panicked and trade came to a standstill. In some ginning factories, local police even pulled out trolleys ready to deliver the cotton.The rate of cotton in Sindh ranges from Rs 17,000 to Rs 17,300 per head. The rate of footi is between Rs 7,000 to Rs 7,300 per 40 kg. The rate of cotton in Punjab is between Rs 17,500 to Rs 17,700 per head, while the rate of foot is between Rs 7,200 to Rs 7,700 per 40 kg. Cotton rates in Balochistan range from Rs 17,000 to Rs 17,200 per head and cotton between Rs 7,200 to Rs 7,600 per 40 kg. The prices of cottonseed, khal and oil remained stable.The spot rate committee of the Karachi Cotton Association reduced the spot rate by Rs 500 per head and closed it at Rs 17,000 per head.Naseem Usman, president of the Karachi Cotton Brokers Forum, said that the price of cotton fluctuates in the international cotton market. According to the USDA's weekly export and sales report, the sales for the year 2022-23 stood at one lakh ninety nine thousand two hundred bales.It was unanimously decided in the meeting that the cotton growers would suspend the purchase of cotton across Pakistan. Repeatedly the promises made by the government are not being fulfilled, the latest example of which is the sales tax notice on Banola and Rs.8500 support (intervention) price. Since the rate has gone below Rs 8500, the government has not yet formulated any policy on cotton procurement.At present, farmers are being paid at the rate of Rs 7,200 for 40 kg of fruit, which does not cover the cost of cultivation due to rising prices of diesel, fertilizers, seeds, pesticides and other related inputs. Due to which the production cost has increased a lot.Since this issue is critical to the stability of agriculture and the economy, it is of top priority to identify and understand policy lapses and take timely corrective measures. The government should intervene and take measures to protect the interests of the farmers and make arrangements for direct purchase from the farmers. Otherwise, Pakistan will turn from a cotton growing/exporting country to a net cotton importing country.Ehsan-ul-Haq Member Central Executive Committee PCGA presenting the position of cotton ginners in connection with the meeting of District Cotton Management Committee said that due to suspension of cotton purchase by ginners in Sindh in particular and Punjab in general a huge cotton There is a crisis. This is being seen and both farmers and cotton ginners are very worried.The main reason for this crisis is the sudden collapse of the cotton markets a few days ago, during which cotton prices fell by Rs 2,000 per head to Rs 16,500 to Rs 17,000 per head. There has also been an extraordinary reduction in the prices of footi and its prices have come down to Rs 6,500 to Rs 7,000 per 40 kg.Over protests from farmers, district administrations in most districts of Sindh and Vihari district of Punjab urged cotton growers to buy cotton at the government-fixed intervention price of Rs 8,500 per 40 kg; Otherwise strict action will be taken against them.Another important issue is the 18% sales tax on seed cotton (banola), which was earlier announced to be abolished by the federal government in the federal budget 2022-23, but was later levied only on cotton used for seed purposes. was confined to the seeds of Now cotton ginners have to pay sales tax of lakhs of rupees from FBR.They are getting notices which are not acceptable to them.In this situation, cotton growers have appealed to the federal government to immediately withdraw the 18% sales tax imposed on cotton seed, and to bring back cotton prices to TCP farmers at an intervention price of Rs 8,500 per 40 kg. Should buy footy from. intervention price level.He demanded that the federal government should also restore the subsidy withdrawn from the textile mills and also reduce the mark-up rate for the textile mills so that the textile mills resume cotton procurement to stabilize cotton prices.

Asif Zardari protested before the Federation regarding the prices of cotton. Farmers complain that they are not getting the prices announced by the government
Tamil Nadu: Kharif MSP for cotton, Stalin writes to Modi on procurementChief Minister M.K. Stalin on Friday requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi to direct the Cotton Corporation of India to start procuring cotton in Tamil Nadu. He also requested them to direct the Union Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare to make the Kharif Minimum Support Price (MSP) for cotton in the state effective from June 1 in the coming years.In a letter, Mr. Stalin highlighted the plight of cotton farmers due to steep fall in cotton prices during the current crop season. Although the previous year had proved highly profitable for cotton farmers, as they sold cotton at ₹12,000 per quintal, they were finding themselves in a tight spot as prices fell to ₹5,500 per quintal.Tamil Nadu has two unique seasons for cotton: rice fallow and summer irrigated in which sowing is done in February-March and harvesting starts in the first week of June. Cotton has been grown in about 84,000 acres in these two seasons. “As harvesting of rice fallow cotton is in full swing, appeals on behalf of Tamil Nadu farmers to invite Cotton Corporation of India to start its procurement in Tamil Nadu and to extend the observance of Kharif MSP for cotton till June 1 every year Has been. Cotton prices are expected to fall to ₹5,500 per quintal,'' he said.The Chief Minister said that the MSP fixed by the Central Government has played an important role in stabilizing the prices of agricultural commodities. In Tamil Nadu, the procurement activities of the Cotton Corporation of India at MSP in the last few years have been very helpful in stabilizing the cotton prices. Recently, the Government of India has fixed the MSP of medium staple cotton at ₹6,620 per quintal and long staple cotton at ₹7,020 per quintal for 2023-24, an increase of ₹540 and ₹640 per quintal, respectively, over the previous year. There is growth.Recalling the support extended by the Prime Minister in extending the MSP for paddy by a month last year when the Kuruvai paddy season was extended by a month, the Chief Minister instructed the Cotton Corporation of India to start cotton requested to give. Directing the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare to make procurement in Tamil Nadu and Kharif MSP for cotton in Tamil Nadu effective from June 1 in the coming years.Mr. Stalin said, “This step will provide much-needed relief to distressed cotton growers in the state by stabilizing prices and ensuring fair income for their produce.” A copy of the letter was shared with the media.

India's cotton exports at 19-year low, decline in production and yieldThe cotton crisis is threatening a double whammy for India. The country's cotton output - by far the largest in the world - will fall to its lowest in 14 years in 2022-23, as yields in cotton-growing states have fallen.This can convert the country from a net exporter of the commodity to a net importer.This estimate by the Cotton Association of India (CAI) has worrying consequences for the country which is the largest producer of cotton in the world. One of the fundamental problems is that it will affect the livelihood of the farmers. The other big problem is that our exports of cotton and its derivatives, such as textiles and apparel, will decline.India's cotton crop is often referred to as "white gold" because of its importance to the agricultural and textile sectors – cotton being a major raw material in this sector. Agro-climatic conditions have made cotton crop favorable. But now this may change.In fact, CAI has reduced the estimate of cotton crop by 4.65 lakh bales to 298.35 lakh bales for the 2022-23 season. Excessive rains in many cotton growing areas are believed to be a major loss this time. About 40 lakh hectares of crops have been damaged due to excessive rains in Maharashtra. Apart from the immediate impact of unseasonal rains, the cotton problem has also escalated. It was years in the making. According to industry officials, excessive dependence of growers on traditional farming methods and absence of modern seeds have been cited as other major reasons for the low yield of cotton.Its effect will be seen on exports. Commerce and Industry Ministry data shows that cotton exports (HS code 5201) declined from $2,659.25 million to $678.75 million in FY 2022-23, registering a year-on-year decline of -74.48% .Except for exports, when domestic production of a commodity falls, the shortage causes its prices to rise. CAI says cotton prices are likely to touch Rs 75,000 per candy by the middle of this year. The prices generally range between Rs 35,000-55,000 per candy.Experts say this development will impact all participants in the cotton supply chain.what you sow you will reapIndustry veterans claim that a crisis in the cotton sector is now inevitable. But there were clear signs that a crisis was brewing and negligence in reacting quickly led to this situation.TT Ltd MD Sanjay K Jain says he is not surprised. “The low cotton yield was much expected. We have not introduced any new cotton seed for 10-15 years. Our awareness about agronomic practices is very low. It is not logical to expect our productivity to increase,” says Jain, who is also the president of the National Textiles of Indian Chamber of Commerce.He also points out that the government is stuck in some royalty issues with some international seed companies and these are yet to be resolved.The Textiles Advisory Group (TAG) in the Ministry of Textiles is aware of these issues, says Jain, but the pace of solutions being implemented is "disappointingly slow". "My request to policymakers is that we need to move with extraordinary speed to implement solutions."Cotton supply chain caught in multiple issuesJain's urgency is understandable. India's cotton crop supports the livelihood of about 6 million cotton farmers and engages 40–50 million persons in allied activities such as cotton processing and trading. Almost all of them are in the MSME segment - a group that may not have the financial strength to withstand such disruptions but can easilysensitive to such shocks. In addition, exports of cotton and its derivatives, such as yarn, fabric and apparel, contribute significantly to foreign exchange earnings.Jain says he does not see any sign of change in the current situation in the next year or two. One way out of the crisis is to focus on increasing the yield of cotton per hectare.This significant disparity in yield also highlights the need for better agricultural techniques, access to better seeds and advanced agricultural infrastructure to maintain a competitive edge in the global market. Apart from the presence of substandard cotton seeds, another major concern is the lack of awareness among cotton growers about optimum sowing practices.“At present, the price range of cotton from Punjab and Haryana is Rs 5,450-5,900 per mande (1 mand = 37.5 kg) and Rs 54,500-56,000 per candy (1 candy = 355.6 kg) for cotton from central India, which depends on the variety. While prices in Punjab and Haryana have increased by 25% compared to the regular average prices, central India is witnessing a whopping 238% increase in cotton prices,'' says Garg.The MD of TT Ltd says that there was no duty on cotton for many years. It is possible to pay duty, import raw materials, make finished goods, and export them when prices are low. But when domestic cotton prices are higher than global prices, the duty undercuts pricing in exports. “There should be no import duty on cotton at least till April-October so that the industry gets a level playing field,” says Jain.Vineet Garg, director of the Indian Cotton Association Ltd, says that Indian spinners and clothiers used to import yarn from China and Vietnam to meet domestic needs when local produce was not able to meet the needs. But the 11% duty has made these imports unviable, he says.But some industry observers say the gloom may soon fade away.Purani of sourcing platform Reshammandi says cotton is expected to stabilize at Rs 75,500-Rs 80,000 per tonne, but yarn prices will see further decline. But he is hopeful that favorable weather could increase the size of the crop.Indian Cotton Association Limited also shares this vision of improvement in the coming season. The minimum support price (MSP) approved by the government will also help in stabilizing cotton prices.It is imperative that the government addresses the crisis in the cotton sector and lifts business sentiment. Otherwise we may lose the magic of "white gold" - a source of income for a large section of people.
"Tamil Nadu cotton farmers demand price support measures"Balachandran, a cotton farmer from Thuraiyur taluk, grew cotton on 10 acres. They got an average price of ₹ 7,000 per quintal (100 kg), compared to ₹ 12,000 per quintal last year.In several villages in Tiruvarur district, farmers are selling at ₹4,000 to ₹4,500 per quintal to local traders, though the minimum support price (MSP) is around ₹6,300 per quintal.Cotton farmers in Tamil Nadu, especially in the delta regions, are harvesting the summer crop and are getting prices nearly 50% lower than last year, and in many places even less than the MSP.A Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) official in Coimbatore told The Hindu that its employees are present in the delta districts and CCI is ready to buy cotton at MSP if prices fall below this.“Only medium or large scale farmers can take the produce to regulated markets where prices are higher than the MSP. Small farmers sell to local traders who charge less than the MSP citing quality issues,'' says Manohar Sambandam, a farmer in Tiruvarur district.They say there is a difference of at least ₹10 per kg between the price of cotton sold to local traders and the price received in regulated markets. They allege that there is a lot of scope for improvement in post-harvest practices to improve the quality of cotton and get better prices, but traders are not even giving fair prices to the farmers.“Last year, though the prices were ₹6,500 to ₹7,000 per quintal at the beginning of the harvesting months, it shot up to ₹12,000. Many farmers increased the area under cotton in the hope of higher prices this year as well. Now, with prices falling by over 50%, they are not happy,'' says Ravichandran, a cotton farmer from Nannilam.Mr Ravichandran says the state government should recommend the central government to advance the implementation of the revised MSP from June-July in Tamil Nadu, though it is from October 1 across the country.Mr. Sambandam says change is needed at the policy-level. “The measures are needed to ensure stable prices for cotton farmers. Forming an FPO is an option,'' he says.Farmers also say that they need supply of quality seeds to get better yield.

spinning mills strikeCoimbatore: Open-end spinning mills have started a strike to protest against the hike in electricity tariffs and raw material prices.The mills produce yarn from cotton waste, clothing waste and pet bottles. More than 640 members are involved in the production of yarn including powerloom, handloom and home textiles."There has been an abnormal increase in cotton prices. Cotton waste is our raw material. The increase in the price of cotton has, in fact, increased the cost of cotton waste by 50% to 75%," State President of Recycled Textiles Association M Jaibal told TOI.“Besides, the state government has hiked the electricity duty, which has put pressure on our operations.

China's imports cheaper due to rise in rupee against yuanIndia's inflation outlook, which faces risks to the upside due to an uncertain monsoon forecast, has benefited from economic struggles in neighboring China, as a sharp appreciation in the rupee against the yuan makes imported goods cheaper.Bloomberg data shows that from March 31 to June 30, the rupee has appreciated by 6% against the Chinese currency. For the calendar year so far, the rupee's appreciation is at a similar level and taking into account the rupee's gain from the yuan's low in January, the domestic currency has strengthened by 8%.While slowing Chinese growth has weighed on global economic prospects, given the current trade dynamics, India will benefit from an inflation perspective.“China is the largest source of our non-energy imports, which means that due to the appreciation of the rupee against the yuan, we will import deflation from China. I think this is under-appreciated in public discussions. It is a The positive thing it will bring is that "core inflation will be lower because imported Chinese goods will be cheaper," said Jahangir Aziz, head of emerging markets economics at JP Morgan.India's trade gap with China widened to $83.2 billion in the last fiscal, as against $72.91 billion in FY22. Exports to China are set to decline by nearly 28% to $15.32 billion in FY2023, while imports grew by 4.16% to $98.51 billion in the previous fiscal.The report noted that imports of Chinese goods have been on a steady rise in the current calendar year, rising by 4.6% in January-April to cross $37.86 billion.deflationary effectStandard Chartered's Anubhuti Sahai said, "The yuan's weakness basically indicates that China is exporting deflation to the rest of the world and to that extent it will also help India because when it comes to our total imports, especially chemicals It is an important partner in etc. Bank's Head of South Asia Economic Research.Analysts said that while macro inflation dynamics would be shaped by the spatial distribution of the monsoon, the yuan's depreciation would be icing on the cake if rains due to the El Nino effect do not cause a nasty shock."For India's inflation, over the next few quarters, the monsoon story becomes far more important than the external story. Core inflation is well contained. A sharp rise in commodity prices is unlikely in the immediate term. "The theme of low commodity prices is also included in the story," Sahai said.China's faltering after tighter Covid restrictions, higher returns in the US following an aggressive rate hike by the Fed and slower export demand amid weak global growth have contributed to the yuan's weakness. The Chinese currency fell to a six-month low against the US dollar last month.Rahul Bajoria, senior regional economist at Barclays, said, "I think this is largely a reflection of a weaker yuan rather than any material change in the dynamics of the rupee. This is something that could help ease inflationary pressures." "mean reversion"This has to be watched because we have a big trade relationship with China. It's pretty much a mean reversion. Even in the first half of the year when people were very bullish about the Chinese economy, we saw the dollar-China There has been a significant decline." ," They said.The Reserve Bank of India's efforts to ensure minimum volatility in the exchange rate of the rupee against the US dollar has also contributed to the movement of the Indian currency against the yuan."If the yuan continues to depreciate against the dollar, the rupee will probably appreciate even more against the CNY. If you want to keep the dollar-rupee rate stable at 81-82, the result is that it Have to take steps against your other trading partners. It's arithmetic,'' Aziz said.The rupee has appreciated by 0.8% against the US dollar so far in 2023, while it depreciated by about 10% last year. Currency traders said that in the past few months, amid heavy foreign inflows into equities, the RBI has been controlling the rupee's gains by buying dollars and replenishing its reserves.
