摘要

Climate change will have major impacts on cotton production and trade depending on production location. This report analyses the impacts of climate change on cotton production and trade in the main producing areas world-wide, and the options availableto mitigate and adapt to these impacts. Cotton production is both a contributor to climate change and subject to its impacts. Agricultural production, processing, trade and consumption contribute up to 40% of the world’s emissions whenforest clearanceis mcluded in the calculation. Cotton production contributes to between 0.3% and l %of total global GHG emissions. Cotton has a certain resilience to high temperatures and drought due to its vertical tap root. The crop is, however, sensitive to water availability, particularly at the height of flowering and bollformation. Rising temperaturesfavour plant development, unless day temperatures exceed 32°C. New production areas may be established where cotton was not be grown before. Increases in atmospheric C0_2 will also favour plant development. In turn, increased pests, water stress, diseases, and weather extremes will pose adaptation challenges. Overall, the negative impacts of climate change on cotton production relate to the reduced availability ofwater for irrigation, in particular in Xinjiang (China), Pakistan, Australia and the western United States. Heat stress risks creating depressed yields in Pakistan in particular, while in other countries limited increases in temperatures could favour cotton plant growth and lengthenthe cotton growing season. The impacts of climate change on rainfall will likely be positive in the Yellow River area (China), ui India, the south-eastern United States and south-eastern Anatolia (Turkey). Impacts on rainfallin Brazil and West and Central Africa are unclear.
