Cotton trade

The cotton trade involves the cultivation, processing, and sale of cotton fibers used to produce textiles and garments. It begins with farmers growing cotton plants, which are harvested and turned into raw cotton. This raw cotton is then processed into yarn and fabric in textile mills. The finished products are traded globally, with major exporters like the U.S., India, and China supplying markets worldwide. The cotton trade is influenced by factors such as weather conditions, global demand, trade policies, and price fluctuations, making it a vital part of the global economy and the textile industry.
