摘要

Cotton is the vital source of income in Sub-Saharan Africa and the major contributor to their Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The West and Central African (WCA) cotton basin comprising of Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali and Chad (C4), Nigeria and Cameroon accounts for about two-third of the total cotton production from the cotton basins of Africa (namely East Africa Egypt, the Great Lakes, Southern Africa , West and Central Africa). It has been observed that the cotton sector in the WCA countries is facing difficulties in terms of trade, price volatility, poorly developed cotton processing sectors, that is affecting the sustainability of the cotton sector in general and the people dependent on this sector in particular. The present study was designed to analyze the trend and instability in the production and trade of Cotton - 4 (C4) countries, Nigeria and Cameroon. It was observed that more than 90 per cent of the cotton is being exported and a very small quantity is used for further value addition in thedomestic territory. There is an increasing instability in the production and exports of the cotton in the recent period which may be attributed to the declining international prices of cotton. This presents a strong case for the development of the domestic cotton processing sector that can create a market for cotton produced in the country and provide scope for employment generation in the country. In this direction the Government of India (Gol) has formulated Technical Assistance programme (TAP) for cotton in Africa to upgrade the recent production and processing technology to ensure the progressive development of the cotton sector in WCA.
