ICE COTTON SUMMARYCotton rises on strong demand viewICE cotton futures rose in thin trading on Monday, helped by strong demand prospects for the natural fiber, although a robust dollar capped further gains.“Cotton has good fundamentals. We had a good shipment number last week. A good sales number and China was the number one buyer for cotton. The trend of cotton is still up,” said Keith Brown, principal at Keith Brown and Co in Georgia.“However, the dollar today being up 70 points is rather extreme, so that is causing a little consternation among traders. But overall, I think cotton fundamentals are fairly solid.”The US dollar rose 0.6% against a basket of major currencies, tracking government bond yields as investors anticipate the Federal Reserve will stay on its path of interest rate hikes in 2022.A stronger greenback makes cotton more expensive for other currency holders.Last week, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) weekly export sales report showed net sales of 192,200 running bales, with China being the top buyer.Chicago soybean futures prices rose by about 1.5% on South American weather concerns, while world markets got 2022 off to an optimistic start, with US and European equity markets powering higher on Monday.On the technical front, “the March contract should experience resistance near 115-116 cents and support near 100-102, 95 -96 and 90-92 cents over the near-to-medium-term,” Louis Rose of Tennessee-based Rose Commodity Group said in a note.Total futures market volume fell by 3,760 to 10,346 lots.

Waive import duty on cotton: Textile entrepreneurs to CentreTextile entrepreneurs are seeking waiver of import duty on cotton to tide over the rise in yarn price that has put the industry under stress over the last one year.Prabhu Dhamodharan, convenor of Indian Texpreneurs Federation (ITF) that has over 450 textile entrepreneurs as members, said the price of raw cotton increased by 67% in the last 12 months.“The Union government should remove the import duty on cotton to bring down cotton prices,” he said.Ideally, the cost of cotton should have come down in the last few weeks. But staggered supply of cotton by farmers has kept the prices high. The role of traders in hoarding cotton is also cited as a reason for the price rise.“Cotton traders are engaging in hoarding, which has been creating artificial shortage resulting in cost inflation. Import is also difficult as the government had imposed an import duty of 10% in last year’s Budget,” said president of Tirupur Exporters and Manufacturers Association (Teama) M P Muthurathinam. “Yarn prices have increased by over 150/kg in one year. On Saturday alone, there was 30 increase, taking the price to 360. It is expected to go up,” he said.Raja M Shanmugam, president of the Tiruppur Exporters Association, said that the government has been silent as cotton farmers are getting benefit over the increase in cotton price. “But survival of the textile industry, which is also labour intensive, is the responsibility of the government as it ensures livelihood of millions of families. If this industry suffers, cotton farmers will eventually suffer. Waiving import duty on cotton will be an immediate measure to bring prices down.”

*Cotton price soars to Rs 10,000/quintal in Gujarat mandis**In Rajkot APMC, among the largest cotton markets of the state, the price touched Rs 10,050 -- the highest so far -- on Thursday. In Gondal APMC too, the highest price was Rs 10,000.**PRICES OF kapas (seed-cotton) touched a historic high of Rs 10,555 per quintal in the yard of agricultural produce market committee (APMC) mandi in Jamnagar Thursday. Traders say the rates of the natural fiber are going through the roof this season due to a drastic fall in production.**The price of kapas in Jamnagar mandi remained in the range of Rs 7500 to Rs 10,555 Thursday with modal price (the price at which the majority of a commodity gets sold on a given day) being Rs 10,000. “This is a historic price and the highest in the entire state. Last year, the highest bid was Rs 6,825 but this year, farmers are realising an average Rs 3,000 higher price,” said Hitesh Patel, secretary of Jamnagar APMC.**In Rajkot APMC, among the largest cotton markets of the state, the price touched Rs 10,050 — the highest so far — on Thursday. In Gondal APMC too, the highest price was Rs 10,000. The lowest in both these APMCs was Rs 7,511 and Rs 5,000 respectively with the modal price being around Rs 9,500.**The price of around Rs 9,500 is almost double as compared to last year’s average price of around Rs 5,500.**Cotton traders ascribed the phenomenon to a drastic drop in cotton yields coinciding with a negligible carry-forward stock of the previous year in India and an empty pipeline of the domestic cotton ginning and spinning industry. “The cotton arrivals in APMCs are almost half as compared to normal years even as demand from the domestic ginning and spinning industry is high as its raw material pipeline was empty due to almost nil carry-forward stock of the previous year. December-January marks the peak of cotton marketing season and normally, Jamnagar APMC records arrivals of around 2,000 quintals daily. But it is hardly around 1,000 quintals these days,” said Mahipatsinh Jadeja of Rajeshwari Trading, a cotton trading firm in Jamnagar APMC.**Similar is the case in Rajkot and Gondal. Rajkot APMC recorded arrivals of 3,450 quintals Thursday. On December 31 last year, cotton arrivals in Rajkot APMC were recorded at 5,400 quintals but the price was in the range of Rs 4,860 to Rs 5,705. In Gondal, arrivals on Thursday were 1,951 quintals, which secretary Tarun Panchani said, was almost half of previous years.*
