The harvest of cotton<\/a> The planted area for the 2026\/27 crop in the United States reached 41% by Sunday (October 18), 4 percentage points above the average of the last five years, according to data released by the Mato Grosso Institute of Agricultural Economics (Imea), based on information from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Despite the progress in the fields, crop conditions remain below the historical average, while the US production estimate has been revised upwards.\n<\/p>\n

The harvest is progressing against a backdrop of improved weather conditions in recent weeks. As a result, the USDA has raised its production forecast by 1.83% compared to the estimate released in September 2026, to 2.93 million tons of cotton lint.<\/p>\n

Even with the positive revision, projected production remains below that recorded in the previous crop year, which limits the expansion of cotton supply from the United States.<\/p>\n

According to data released by Imea, based on USDA monitoring, the US harvest reached 41% by October 18. This percentage represents an increase of 4 percentage points compared to the average of the last five years.<\/p>\n

The pace of work in the fields indicates that the harvest is further ahead than the historical average for this time of year. However, the progress of the operation does not eliminate concerns related to the productive conditions of the crops.<\/p>\n

The performance of the North American crop remains on the radar of the international market, since the harvest results can influence global supply expectations and cotton price formation.<\/p>\n

Crop conditions also showed weekly improvement. According to data released by Imea, 35% of cotton areas in the United States were classified as good and excellent, an increase of 1 percentage point compared to the previous week.<\/p>\n

Despite the recovery, the indicator remains below the historical average, signaling less favorable conditions than those typically observed in recent years.<\/p>\n

Recent improved weather has contributed to the positive revision of the production estimate. Even so, the crop situation indicates that crop development remains an important factor in monitoring the North American supply.<\/p>\n

With improved weather conditions in recent weeks, the USDA has revised its estimate for US cotton production for the 2026\/27 crop upwards. According to data released by Imea, the projection increased by 1.83% compared to the estimate published in September 2026, reaching 2.93 million tons of lint.\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n

Despite the adjustment, the projected volume remains below the production recorded in the previous harvest. This scenario limits the expansion of the North American supply, even with the prospect of recovery compared to the previous estimate.<\/p>\n

The progress of the harvest, crop conditions, and confirmation of production results will remain on the market's radar. These factors may influence expectations regarding the global availability of cotton and the trajectory of commodity prices.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
