This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pakistan's cotton, textile, and apparel industries are key sectors of the nation's economy; their performance can contribute to either a rise or fall in poverty. These vital industries have faced a variety of challenges and opportunities in recent years, including world cotton price instability, liberalization of the multilateral clothing and textile trade, and sharp swings in the Pakistani macroeconomic situation. Using a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model and drawing on a national survey of Pakistani households, the authors of this report evaluate the consequences of several recent or prospective economic changes on Pakistan's cotton, textile, and apparel industries and poverty levels. The economic changes include an increased inflow of foreign capital, higher world cotton and textile prices, government subsidization of the textile industry, increased productivity in the cotton and textile sectors, and other possible developments. By presenting these scenarios, the report offers policymakers and analysts a guide to anticipating and shaping the future of economic growth and poverty reduction in Pakistan.

This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cotton is the most important cash crop in Pakistan and cotton products export account for 55 percent of all foreign exchange earnings of the country. Nearly 26 percent of farmers grow cot-ton, and over 15 percent of total cultivated area is devoted to this crop, with production pri-marily in two provinces. Approximately 65 percent of Pakistan’s cotton is grown in Punjab, which has dry conditions, and the rest is grown in Sindh, which has a more humid climate, with negligible area under cotton in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. Cotton production ac-counts for 4.5 percent of the value added in AgGDP and 0.8 per cent of GDP. It serves as the raw material for the textile industry, the country’s largest agro-industrial sector , employs 17 per-cent, earns 60 percent of foreign exchange and contributes 8.5 percent to GDP.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pakistan's Cotton Industry Pakistan's cotton production rose to a peak Of million bales (480-1b net) in 1971 /72 and has since de creased. After falling to million, bales in 1978/ 79, production is expected to recover to million bales in This compares with a 5 - year average (1973/ 74-1977/ 78) Of million bales. Cot-ton production in Pakistan varies considerably from season to season (see table A simple linear trend regression covering the years through 1978/ 79 indicates a standard error of million bales (variation of actual production from the trend for the specified years), which means pro d etion on the average varied about percent from the trend. Insect infestations, irrigation, weather, and Competing crops have been important factors in this fluctuation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cotton in Pakistan The Pakistan cotton industry, with production having remained almost static over the past 4 years, is at a crossroad. It must choose between remaining a major raw cotton exporter at the expense of domestic consumption, allowing the rapidly expanding textile industry to absorb an increased share of domestic production, or satisfying both needs by sharply expanding cotton production. Currently, the latter alternative appears to hold the upper hand, with industry leaders confident that the country will expand cotton production sufficiently to remain a major exporter. The Government of Pakistan also hopes to keep cotton production trending upward for the next few years. In its fourth five-year Plan, the Government has set a production target of million bales (of 480 lb. Net) for 1974-75, compared with about million in 1970-71. This would provide an exportable surplus of bales per year after the increasing domestic mill requirement of about million bales has been met. Industry officials are hopeful that as a result of rising returns to producers, about half of the production increase will take place in 1971-72. Since Pakistan has approached previous production goals, there is confidence that this one will be reached. Although there is some trend toward the longer staple varieties about three-fourths of Pakistan's outturn will probably continue to be I inch or shorter in staple length. Working in favor of production gains is the increased return to producers. Raw cotton prices received by producers in the 1970-71 season were 20 percent higher than in 1969-70. Domestic mill and export prices for Pakistan cotton have risen, but competition between the expanding local textile industry and exporters for available cotton has caused producer prices to post even larger gains than have occurred on world markets. In addition, since August 1970, exporters of raw cotton have been eligible to retain, in the form of bonus vouchers, 10 percent of the foreign exchange they earn. They can use these vouchers to import a large number of items for which foreign exchange is not otherwise available, or they can sell them for up to 175 percent of their face value. This makes raw cotton exports more competitive with cotton textile exports. Which earn retention of 45 percent of foreign exchange.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive and systematic overview of the recent developments in cotton production and processing, including a number of genetic approaches, such as GM cotton for pest resistance, which have been hotly debated in recent decades. In the era of climate change, cotton is facing diverse abiotic stresses such as salinity, drought, toxic metals and environmental pollutants. As such, scientists are developing stress-tolerant cultivars using agronomic, genetic and molecular approaches. Gathering papers on these developments, this timely book is a valuable resource for a wide audience, including plant scientists, agronomists, soil scientists, botanists, environmental scientists and extention workers.

Book excerpt: The epic story of the rise and fall of the empire of cotton, its centrality to the world economy, and its making and remaking of global capitalism. Cotton is so ubiquitous as to be almost invisible, yet understanding its history is key to understanding the origins of modern capitalism. Sven Beckert’s rich, fascinating book tells the story of how, in a remarkably brief period, European entrepreneurs and powerful statesmen recast the world’s most significant manufacturing industry, combining imperial expansion and slave labor with new machines and wage workers to change the world. Here is the story of how, beginning well before the advent of machine production in the 1780s, these men captured ancient trades and skills in Asia, and combined them with the expropriation of lands in the Americas and the enslavement of African workers to crucially reshape the disparate realms of cotton that had existed for millennia, and how industrial capitalism gave birth to an empire, and how this force transformed the world. The empire of cotton was, from the beginning, a fulcrum of constant global struggle between slaves and planters, merchants and statesmen, workers and factory owners. Beckert makes clear how these forces ushered in the world of modern capitalism, including the vast wealth and disturbing inequalities that are with us today. The result is a book as unsettling as it is enlightening: a book that brilliantly weaves together the story of cotton with how the present global world came to exist.
