However, its production remains volatile and unpredictable. Of the top five cotton growing countries the crop is rain dependent in China, India and Pakistan. Thus, good rains lead to bumper crop and prices tend to fall the visa-versa. According to the “World Cotton – Trends in Demand and Supply” a compendium from this presenting the demand and supply trends in 2006, India and Pakistan consumed nearly 4 million tons and 2.6 million of cotton respectively. At the same time, USA and Turkey consumed around 1.5 million tons.
This attempt to place in perspective, the trends witnessed in manmade fibres since 1990 with regards to production, consumption and trade. The presentation is made through descriptive analysis of the trends and changes in the industry with detailed tabulation in various permutation and combinations and graphical presentation. The purpose of this compendium is to serve as a basic information infrastructure for textile companies and to all those who are related to fibres and yarns industry. The compendium will also serve as a ready reckoner and the presentation will ease quick consumption of the information.
The Report is divided into two sections: Global View and Producing country View.
The first section covers World production of manmade and natural fibres for the period 1980 to 2006. This section covers time series on production of polyester - with its two streams the staple fibre and filament yarn, viscose – staple fibre and filament yarn and acrylic staple fibre. Among the natural fibres, the report covers production of cotton, wool and silk. The aggregation is done for each of fibre group namely manmade fibre – cellulosic and synthetic, and natural fibres. They are further aggregated into total fibres production. Also tabulations on year-on-year percentages changes and each fibre/yarn’s share in respective segment are presented.
The second section cover details on cotton covering production, demand and trade (imports and exports) of each fibre/yarn distributed by countries. The countries are China, Taiwan, India, USA, Uzbekistan, Turkey, Australia, Greece, Syria, Egypt and West Europe.
The report will be useful at all levels of decision makers and particularly, handy for textile corporate and business planner.
The data on manmade fibre and natural fibre is available in myriad of sources. We have collated the data from best and authentic sources after verifying the same with industry peers. In our endeavour to serve our clients, we shall release the next report in 2008 with updated data for 2007 and also incorporating projections over the period of next five years
