Author(s) Ms. Prabavathi R, Dr. A. Shanpareeth
Country India
Abstract The cotton industry is a significant global economic sector that involves the cultivation, processing, and trade of cotton fibre for textile production and other uses. The important aspects include its role in providing employment, particularly in agriculture and manufacturing and its importance as a source of exports and GDP contribution. The Indian cotton industry provides livelihood to about 60 million people in the country. Its production provides income for more than 250 million people worldwide and employs almost 7% of all labour in developing countries. It is a crop that holds significant importance for the Indian economy and the livelihood of Indian cotton farmers. Cotton grows over 13.06 million hectares in India compared to 33.1 million hectares globally. Cotton in India provides direct livelihood to 6 million farmers and about 40-50 million people are employed in cotton trade and its processing. In India, there are ten major cotton growing states which are divided into three zones, viz. north zone, central zone. The zone-wise production performance was also analysed. The challenges of cotton industry include price volatility, climate change, and competition. At the same time the opportunities exist in technological advancements, sustainable practices, and vertical integration like the cluster system. An attempt has been made to study the production, consumption and the export performance of the cotton industry in India. Based on the findings, suitable suggestions were made to improve the performance of the industry.
