Description: | The scenario in India is no different than the rest of the world. An already heavily reliant textile sector on natural fibrs particularly cotton; is served well by the surge in production in recent times. The cotton production has taken a giant leap forward to 280 lakh bales and the increased availability has fuelled consumption as well. The productivity although far lower than world average has significantly improved to stand at 470 kg/ha, in 2006-07 as against a world average of 700 kg/ha. An all-round awareness in the entire value chain, improved production and protection technologies and their large scale on-farm demonstration, genetically modified cotton and its adoption, improved processing and market infrastructure and above all a favourable governmental policy and programme initiatives by the government have all contributed to this welcome development. |
