INTERNATIONAL COTTON ADVISORY COMMITTEE
The International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC) is an
association of governments having an interest in the production,
export, import, and consumption of cotton. It is an organization
designed to promote cooperation in cotton affairs, particularly
those of international scope and significance. It affords its
members an understanding of the world cotton situation and
provides a forum for international consultation and discussion.
The Committee has consultative status with the U.N. and
its specialized agencies and cooperates closely with other
international organizations in matters of common interest.
The functions of the International Cotton Advisory Committee
are defined in the Rules and Regulations, which are available
on the Web and by request. These are:
•
To observe and keep in close touch with developments
affecting the world cotton situation.
•
To collect and disseminate complete, authentic, and timely
statistics on world cotton production, trade, consumption,
stocks and prices.
•
To suggest, as and when advisable, to the governments
represented, any measures the Advisory Committee
considers suitable and practicable for the furtherance of
international collaboration with due regard to maintaining
and developing a sound world cotton economy.
•
To be the forum for international discussions on matters
related to cotton prices.
The Committee is the outgrowth of an International Cotton
Meeting held in Washington, in September 1939. At that time,
world stocks of cotton had reached nearly 5.5 million tons, of
which over half were located in the United States.
The following ten producing countries convened in Washington,
D.C., in September 1939: Brazil, British cotton exporting colonies,
Egypt, French cotton exporting colonies, India, Mexico, Peru,
Sudan, the USSR, and the United States, to discuss problems
of over-production, rising stocks and falling prices. The principal
objective was to take concerted international action to avoid
chaotic developments in the world cotton economy.
The following resolution was passed:
“1. That an advisory committee be set up in Washington
representing the countries participating in the present
conference, and including in addition representatives of other
important cotton growing and exporting nations; such committee
to undertake the following function:
“(a) To observe and keep in close touch with developments
in the world cotton situation.
“(b) To suggest, as and when advisable, to the
Governments represented any measures the committee
considers suitable and practicable for the achievement of
ultimate collaboration.”
The ICAC met for the first time in Washington, D.C. in April
1940. At first, membership was limited to cotton producing
countries. After the fourth meeting, an invitation to join the
Committee was extended to “all other United and Associated
Nations substantially interested in the production, export or
import of cotton.”
At the fifth Meeting in May 1946, it was decided to establish a
Secretariat and a governing Executive Committee consisting
of representatives from six cotton producing and six cotton
consuming countries. A beginning was also made with the
statistical and economic information program, which became
an intrinsic part of the Committee’s work. Subsequently, in 1948,
it was agreed to replace the original Executive Committee with
a Standing Committee in which all countries would have a
voice.
MEMBERSHIP
Membership in ICAC is open to all members of the United
Nations or of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the
United Nations, expressing an interest in cotton. Any other
government expressing an interest in cotton shall be eligible to
apply for membership.
The annual budget of the Committee—US$1,980,000 in 2011/
12—is supported by assessments to member governments,
subscriptions to publications and participant fees at meetings.
Forty percent of the total assessment is shared equally among
member countries. The remaining sixty percent is allocated
based on the average trade in raw cotton in the four most recent
cotton seasons. In 2011/12, the equal contribution is US$18,300
and the additional calculation is US$111.93 per 1,000 tons of
average cotton trade (imports plus exports).
PLENARY MEETINGS
At the invitation of a member government, plenary meetings of
the Advisory Committee are held each year. Meetings alternate
as much as possible between cotton exporting and importing
countries.
A provisional agenda and time schedule for each plenary
meeting is prepared by the Standing Committee. Provision is
made for the exchange of information on the cotton situation
in various countries and for discussions on international policy
matters. Since the mid-1960s, technical seminars on subjects of
interest to researchers have been held as a part of each plenary
meeting. The Secretariat of the Committee publishes the formal
proceedings of each plenary meeting.
The official languages of the ICAC are Arabic, English, French,
Russian and Spanish. Full si mul ta neous interpretation is
provided at plenary meetings.
STANDING COMMITTEE
A Standing Committee, consisting of representatives of all
member governments, gives continuity to the activities of the
International Cotton Advisory Committee between plenary
meetings. The Standing Committee convenes in Washington.
Attention is given to the current world cotton situation, cotton
policy matters, and also to assignments from the plenary
meetings.
THE SECRETARIAT
The Secretariat of the Committee is located in Washington, DC
and is composed of an international staff headed by an Executive
Director whose appointment and contract of employment is
determined by a plenary meeting. The following individuals
have served as executive directors (executive secretary):
Mr. R. Whitaker, May 1947–Mar 1949
Mr. Robert Evans, Apr 1949–Feb 1963
2
Dr. J. C. Santley, Mar 1963–Dec 1986
Dr. Lawrence. H. Shaw, Jan 1987–Dec 1998
Dr. Terry P. Townsend, Jan 1999–
The Secretariat assists the Committee in carrying out its work
program by developing and publishing statistics and analyses
of the world cotton situation; by carrying out a program of work
to disseminate information on cotton production research; by
cooperating with other organizations to promote a sound world
cotton economy; and by facilitating discussions on matters
related to cotton prices.
COORDINATING AGENCIES
Each member government is required to establish a “permanent
national coordinating agency” to provide the Secretariat with
statistics on the cotton situation and to distribute publications
and reports received from the Secretariat. Under this cooperative
arrangement, there has been continued improvement in the
quantity and quality of statistics on cotton available on a world
basis.
Coordinating agencies are frequently called upon to supply
information requested by special inquiries from the Committee.
Their cooperation has made possible world surveys on various
subjects of importance to member governments.
COMITE CONSULTATIF INTERNATIONAL DU COTON
Le Comité consultatif international du coton (CCIC) est une
association de gouvernements ayant un intérêt dans la
production, l’exportation, l’importation et la consommation de
coton. C’est une organisation créée dans le but d’encourager
la coopération dans le domaine du coton, en particulier sur le
plan international. Elle permet à ses membres de comprendre
la situation cotonnière mondiale et de participer à des échanges
de vues et des consultations internationales. Le Comité a un
statut consultatif avec les Nations Unies et ses institutions et
collabore étroitement avec d’autres organisations internationales
sur les questions présentant un intérêt commun.
Les fonctions du Comité consultatif international du coton sont
définies par le Règlement statutaire, dont un exemplaire peut
être obtenu sur demande et sur le site Web. Ces fonctions sont
les suivantes :
La résolution suivante a été adoptée :
“1. Un Comité consultatif établi à Washington représente
les pays participants à la conférence en cours et comprend
également les représentants de pays exportateurs et cultivateurs
de coton ; un tel comité devra assumer les principales fonctions
suivantes :
“(a) Observer et suivre de près l’évolution de la conjoncture
économique dans la mesure où elle intéresse la situation
mondiale du coton.
“(b) Proposer, s’il en est besoin, aux gouvernements
participants, toutes mesures que le Comité consultatif
juge appropriées et réalisables en vue d’une collaboration
étroite.”
Le CCIC s’est réuni pour la première fois à Washington, D.C.
en avril 1940. Au début, l’accession à la qualité de membre
était limitée aux pays producteurs de coton. Après la quatrième
réunion, une invitation a été envoyée “à tous les pays membres
des Nations-Unies et pays associés qui portent un intérêt
considérable à la production, à l’exportation ou à l’importation
de coton.”
•
Observer et suivre de près l’évolution de la conjoncture
économique dans la mesure où elle intéresse la situation
mondiale du coton.
•
Réunir et publier des statistiques complètes, officielles et
à jour sur la production, le commerce, la consommation,
les stocks et les prix du coton dans le monde.
•
Proposer, s’il en est besoin, aux gouvernements
participants, toutes mesures que le Comité consultatif juge
appropriées et réalisables pour renforcer la collaboration
internationale en vue de développer et maintenir une
économie mondiale du coton reposant sur des bases
saines.
A la cinquième Réunion, en mai 1946, il a été décidé d’établir
un Secrétariat et un Comité exécutif constitué de représentants
de six pays producteurs et six pays consommateurs de coton.
Il a également été question d’un programme d’information
statistique et économique, qui devinrent une part intrinsèque
du Comité. Par la suite, en 1948, il a été décidé de remplacer
le Comité exécutif par une Commission permanente à laquelle
tous les Etats membres puissent avoir droit à une voix.
•
Etre l’enceinte où doivent se dérouler les discussions
internationales portant sur les prix du coton.
MEMBRES
Le Comité a été constitué à la suite d’une Réunion internationale
sur le coton qui avait eu lieu à Washington en septembre 1939.
A cette époque, les stocks mondiaux de coton atteignaient
presque 5,5 millions de tonnes ; plus de la moitié de ces stocks
se trouvaient aux Etats-Unis.
L’adhésion au CCIC est ouverte à tout membre des Nations
Unies ou de l’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’alimentation
et l’agriculture ayant exprimé son intérêt pour le coton. Tout
gouvernement exprimant son intérêt pour le coton pourra
solliciter son adhésion.
Les dix pays producteurs suivants s’étaient donc réunis à
Washington, D.C. en septembre 1939 : le Brésil, les colonies
anglaises exportatrices de coton, l’Egypte, les colonies
françaises exportatrices de coton, l’Inde, le Mexique, le Pérou,
le Soudan, l’URSS et les Etats-Unis. Les discussions portaient
sur des problèmes tels que la surproduction, la hausse des
stocks et la chute des prix. L’objectif principal était d’éviter,
par une intervention internationale concertée, que l’économie
cotonnière mondiale évolue d’une manière chaotique.
Le budget annuel du Comité pour l’année fiscale 2011/12 est
de 1 980 000 dollars US et provient des contributions des Etats
membres, des abonnements aux publications et des droits
d’inscription des participants aux réunions plénieres. Quarante
pour cent de la totalité des contributions des Etats membres
est réparti entre les pays membres. Le solde de 60 pour cent
est proportionnellement calculé sur la base de la moyenne
du volume commercial de coton brut des quatre dernières
campagnes. En 2011/12, la contribution fixe de chaque Etat
membre est de 18 300 dollars US, et la contribution variable
3
est basée sur un calcul de 111,93 dollars US pour 1 000
tonnes de commerce de coton en moyenne (importations plus
exportations).
REUNIONS PLENIERES
Des Réunions plénières du Comité consultatif sont tenues
chaque année, sur l’invitation d’un Etat membre. Les Réunions
doivent alterner autant que possible entre pays exportateurs et
importateurs.
La Commission permanente établit un ordre du jour provisoire
et un horaire des séances pour chaque Réunion plénière. Il est
également prévu des échanges de renseignements concernant
la situation du coton dans les divers pays et des discussions
relatives aux questions de politique cotonnière internationale.
Depuis le milieu des années 1960, des colloques techniques
sont tenus en rapport avec la Réunion plénière, sur des sujets
ayant un intérêt commun à la recherche en matière cotonnière.
Le Secrétariat du Comité publie le procès-verbal officiel de
chaque Réunion.
Les langues officielles du CCIC sont l’anglais, l’arabe, l’espagnol,
le français et le russe. Une interprétation simultanée est assurée
au cours des Réunions plénières.
LA COMMISSION PERMANENTE
Pour assurer la continuité des travaux du Comité consultatif
international du coton entre les Réunions plénières, une
Com mis sion permanente a été constituée, composée de
représentants de tous les Etats membres. Elle se réunit à
Washington. Elle se préoccupe surtout de la situation actuelle
du coton dans le monde, des questions de politique cotonnière
et des travaux que lui a confiés la Réunion plénière.
LE SECRETARIAT
Le Secrétariat du Comité est situé à Washington, DC et est
composé d’un personnel international à la tête duquel se trouve
le Directeur exécutif dont la nomination et le contrat sont décidés
par une Réunion plénière. Les personnes suivantes ont été les
différents Directeurs exécutifs (Secrétaires généraux):
M. Rodney Whitaker, Fév 1947-Mars 1949
M. Robert Evans, Avril 1949-Fév 1963
M. J. C. Santley, Mars 1963-Déc 1986
M. Lawrence H. Shaw, Jan 1987-Déc 1998
M. Terry P. Townsend, Jan 1999Le Secrétariat aide le Comité à remplir son programme de
travail en développant et en publiant des statistiques, et en
analysant la situation cotonnière mondiale ; en se chargeant
d’un programme de travail pour disséminer des informations
scientifiques et établir de meilleurs échanges entre spécialistes
en coopérant avec d’autres organisations afin de maintenir une
économie mondiale du coton reposant sur des bases saines ;
et en facilitant les discussions sur tout sujet relatif aux prix du
coton.
ORGANISMES DE COORDINATION
Des résolutions adoptées par le Comité demandent à tous
les Etats membres de créer “des organismes permanents de
coordination” qui fournissent chaque mois au Secrétariat une
série de statistiques sur la situation cotonnière et diffusent les
publications et les rapports que lui font parvenir le Secrétariat.
Dans le cadre de ces dispositions de coopération, on a pu
améliorer, de façon continue, la quantité et la qualité des
statistiques concernant le coton à l’échelle mondiale.
Les organismes de coordination sont appelés fréquemment
à fournir des renseignements, à l’occasion de demandes
spécifiques que leur adresse le Comité. Leur coopération a
permis des enquêtes mondiales sur divers sujets qui présentent
de l’importance pour les Etats membres.
COMITE CONSULTIVO INTERNACIONAL DEL ALGODON
El Comité Consultivo Internacional del Algodón (CCIA) es una
asociación de gobiernos que tienen interés en la producción,
exportación, importación y consumo de algodón. Es una
organización designada para promover la cooperación en
asuntos algodoneros, en particular aquellos de alcance
y significado internacional. Facilita a sus miembros una
comprensión de la situación algodonera mundial y provee un
foro para consultas y deliberaciones a nivel internacional. El
Comité mantiene una posición consultativa con las Naciones
Unidas y sus agencias epecializadas y colabora estrechamente
con otros organismos internacionales en asuntos de interés
común. Las funciones del Comité Consultivo Internacional del
Algodón se definen en el Reglamento, que está disponible en la
Internet o a solicitud de los interesados. Estas incluyen:
•
Observar el desarrollo que afecte la situación algodonera
mundial y mantenerse al corriente de la misma.
•
Reunir y diseminar estadísticas completas, auténticas
y oportunas sobre la producción, comercio, consumo,
existencias y precios mundiales del algodón.
•
Sugerir a los gobiernos representados, en la forma y
oportunidad convenientes, cualesquiera medidas que el
Comité Consultivo estime adecuadas y factibles para el
progreso de la colaboración internacional con la debida
atención a la manutención y desarrollo de una economía
algodonera sana.
•
Ser el foro para deliberaciones internacionales en asuntos
relacionados con los precios del algodón.
El Comité se estableció como resultado de la Reunión
Internacional del Algodón celebrada en Washington, DC
en septiembre de 1939. En ese entonces, las existencias
mundiales del algodón habían alcanzado casi 5,5 millones de
toneladas, de las cuales más de la mitad se hallaban en los
Estados Unidos.
En septiembre de 1939 se reunieron en Washington DC,
representantes de los diez países que se indican a continuación:
Brasil, colonias británicas exportadoras de algodón, Egipto,
colonias francesas exportadoras de algodón, India, México,
Perú, Sudán, URSS y los Estados Unidos para deliberar acerca
de los problemas de producción excesiva, existencias crecientes
y precios en descenso. El objetivo primordial era tomar acción
internacional concertada para evitar acontecimientos caóticos
en la economía algodonera mundial.
4
La siguiente resolución fue adoptada:
“1. Establecer en Washington un Comité Permanente
representando a los países participantes en la conferencia,
incluyendo además representantes de países cultivadores y
exportadores de algodón. Le corresponderán al Comité las
siguientes funciones:
“(a) Observar los acontecimientos que afecten la situación
algodonera mundial y mantenerse al corriente de la misma.
“(b) Sugerir a los gobiernos miembros del CCIA, en la forma y
oportunidad convenientes, cualesquiera medidas que el CCIA
estime adecuadas y factibles para el progreso de la colaboración
internacional”.
El CCIA se reunió por primera vez en Washington DC, en
abril de 1940. Al principio el ingreso estaba limitado a países
productores de algodón. Después de la cuarta reunión se
extendió una invitación para que ingresaran al Comité “todas
las Naciones Unidas o países asociados con interés sustancial
en la producción, exportación o importación de algodón”.
En la Quinta Reunión Plenaria en mayo de 1946, se decidió
establecer una Secretaría y un Comité Ejecutivo dirigente
integrado por representantes de seis países productores y seis
países consumidores. Se dio comienzo también al programa
de información estadística y económica, el cual pasó a ser una
parte intrínseca de la labor del Comité. Subsecuentemente, en
1948 se convino en reemplazar al Comité Ejecutivo original
por un Comité Permanente en el cual todos los países estarían
representados.
MIEMBROS
La invitación para ser miembro del CCIA se extiende a todos
los miembros de la Naciones Unidas o de la Organización
de las Naciones Unidas para la Agricultura y la Alimentación
que expresen interés en el algodón. Cualquier otro país que
exprese interés en el algodón podrá presentar una solicitud
de ingreso.
El presupuesto anual del Comité correspondiente al año fiscal
2011/12 es de 1.980.000 provenientes de las contribuciones
financieras de los países miembros, suscripciones, y cuotas
de inscripción en las reuniones. Cuarenta por ciento del total
de las contribuciones resulta de una contribución básica igual
para cada país miembro. El sesenta por ciento restante es
una contribución prorrateada calculada sobre la base del
comercio promedio del algodón durante las cuatro temporadas
algodoneras más recientes. La contribución básica para el
año 2011/12 es de 18.300 dólares y el monto adicional es de
111,93 dólares por cada 1.000 toneladas, calculado sobre la
base promedio del comercio del algodón (importaciones más
exportaciones).
REUNIONES PLENARIAS
Las reuniones plenarias del Comité Consultivo se celebran todos
los años por invitación de un gobierno miembro, alternándose
cuanto más posible entre países importadores y exportadores
de algodón.
El Comité Permanente prepara una agenda provisional y un
programa para cada reunión plenaria. En la reunión, se facilita
el intercambio de información sobre la situación algodonera en
diferentes países y se delibera acerca de asuntos de política
internacional. A partir de los años sesenta, las actividades de la
Sección de Información Técnica han incluido la organización de
un seminario técnico anual con ocasión de la reunión plenaria.
La Secretaría del Comité prepara una publicación de las actas
de cada reunión plenaria.
Los idiomas oficiales del CCIA son el árabe, español, francés,
inglés y ruso. En las reuniones plenarias se provee interpretación
simultánea completa.
EL COMITE PERMANENTE
Un Comité Permanente, integrado por representantes de todos
los países miembros da continuidad a las actividades del Comité
Consultivo Internacional del Algodón entre reuniones plenarias.
El Comité Permanente se reúne en Washington DC. Se presta
atención a la actual situación algodonera mundial, los temas
de política algodonera y también a las directivas de la reunión
plenaria.
LA SECRETARIA
La Secretaría del Comité tiene su sede en Washington, DC
y está compuesta por un personal internacional encabezado
por el Director Ejecutivo, cuyo nombramiento y contrato de
empleo está determinado por la reunión plenaria. Los siguientes
individuos han servido como directores ejecutivos (Secretarios
Ejecutivos).
Sr. Rodney Whitaker, feb 1947-marzo 1949
Sr. Robert Evans, abril 1949-febrero 1963
Dr. J. C. Santley, marzo 1963-dic 1986
Dr. Lawrence H. Shaw, enero 1987-dic 1998
Dr. Terry P. Townsend, enero 1999La Secretaría presta apoyo al Comité llevando a cabo su
programa de trabajo que consiste en suministrar y publicar
estadísticas y análisis completos sobre la situación mundial
del algodón; reunir y diseminar información científica sobre
investigación de la producción algodonera; cooperar con otras
organizaciones para promover una economía sana en el mundo
algodonero; y facilitar las discusiones en materias relacionadas
con los precios del algodón.
AGENCIAS COORDINADORAS
Las regulaciones del Comité determinan que cada gobierno
miembro debe establecer “agencias nacionales permanentes
de coordinación” para que suministren a la Secretaría todos los
meses estadísticas sobre la situación algodonera y para que
distribuyan en sus países publicaciones e informes recibidos
de la Secretaría. En virtud de este arreglo de cooperación ha
habido una mejora continua en la cantidad y calidad de las
estadísticas disponibles sobre el algodón a nivel mundial.
Se solicita con frecuencia a las agencias coordinadoras
que suministren información por medio de cuestionarios
especializados enviados por el Comité. La cooperación de las
agencias ha hecho posible llevar a cabo encuestas mundiales
sobre diferentes temas de importancia para los gobiernos
miembros.

OVERVIEW OF THE WORLD COTTON MARKET IN 2010/11
Cotton is one of the most important and widely
produced agricultural and industrial crops in the
world. Cotton is grown in more than 80 countries
on about 2% of the world’s arable land, making
it one of the most significant in terms of land use
after food grains and soybeans. Cotton is also a
heavily traded agricultural commodity, with over
100 countries involved in exports or imports.
More than 100 million family units are engaged
directly in cotton production. When family labor,
hired-on farm labor and workers in ancillary services such as transportation, ginning, baling and
storage are considered, then involvement in the
cotton sector reaches between 250 and 300 million people. Cotton also provides employment
to additional millions in allied industries such as
agricultural inputs, machinery and equipment,
cottonseed crushing and textile manufacturing.
Cotton cultivation contributes to food security and
improved life expectancy in rural areas of developing countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
Cotton played an important role in industrial development starting in the 17th century and continues to do so today as a major source of revenue.
The annual value of world cotton production averaged $47 billion between 2006/07 and 2010/11.
The world cotton industry experienced dramatic
changes over the last six decades as production
nearly quadrupled, rising from 7 million tons in
1950/51 to 27 million tons in 2004/05. The average annual rate of growth in world production
over the last six decades has been almost 3% per
year. World demand for cotton has also increased

at an impressive pace, rising from 8 million tons
in 1950 to 27 million tons in 2007/08. The world
cotton industry experienced robust demand
growth and rising yields over the six decades
since the end of World War II.
The global economic crisis of 2008/09 translated
into a sharp drop in industrial cotton consumption and a fall in international cotton prices. A
three-year decline in production combined with
a strong rebound in mill use reduced global cotton stocks to a 15-year low at the end of 2009/10.
Continued firm demand and declining stocks in
the first part of 2010/11 pushed cotton prices to
record levels. However, demand for cotton collapsed in the second part of the season, triggering
a rapid descent in prices. Extreme price volatility
during 2010/11 resulted in a significant increase
in the number of cancellations and defaults on
contracts for trade in cotton.
International cotton prices have declined in real
terms over the last six decades because of advances in technology. During the 1970s, 1980s
and 1990s, the average world price of cotton in
nominal terms was 70 U.S. cents per pound. The
average international price during the 2000s was
60 U.S. cents per pound, in line with declining
marginal costs of production for average producers. However, a significant tightening in stocks,
combined with firm demand, pushed international cotton prices to much higher levels in 2009/10
and 2010/11. The Cotlook A Index averaged 78
U.S. cents per pound in 2009/10 and jumped to a
record of $1.64 per pound in 2010/11.
