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.

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.”
