This is your Daily Cotton Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

Hey my friend, welcome back to Daily Cotton Price Tracker. I am Vanessa Clark, and today we are talking about what is going on right now in the cotton market and what it means for you if you grow cotton, buy cotton, or just watch cotton futures.

Let us start with the headline number. According to Trading Economics and MacroMicro, benchmark cotton futures are trading right around 64 cents per pound, roughly 63 point 9 cents, after slipping a bit in today’s session. Farm Progress shows the nearby United States Cotton Number 2 contract trading in the upper 60 cent range, with the front month around 68 cents per pound, also a touch softer on the day.

So what is driving that cotton price action. Market Minute and other analysts describe this as a range bound cotton market, with prices hovering near 64 cents a pound and likely to stay in this zone into 2026. High global stocks are still hanging over the market, and the latest United States Department of Agriculture supply and demand updates have pushed world production slightly above consumption again. That oversupply caps big rallies, even as modest global economic growth gives just enough demand to keep prices from collapsing.

On the demand side, recent export sales reports have been underwhelming. Barchart notes that weekly cotton export sales have been soft and that speculative funds are still heavily net short. That tells us big traders are betting on continued weakness or sideways trade. At the same time, the Adjusted World Price sits near the low 50 cent per pound area, which squeezes grower margins and makes many farmers reluctant sellers at current futures levels.

So what can you do with cotton around 64 cents. If you are a producer, this is a classic risk management environment. Talk with your merchandiser about scaling in small hedges on any rallies into the upper 60s or low 70s, instead of waiting for a big breakout that may not come soon. If you are a mill or textile buyer, this is a window to lock in a portion of your cotton needs while prices are still relatively low, especially if your business planning assumes higher long term prices.

Looking a bit further out, several industry outlooks see global cotton consumption growing slowly through 2030, helped by sustainability trends and increased demand for responsibly sourced cotton. That does not help today’s cash flow, but it does suggest cotton has a future beyond this slump, especially for growers and brands leaning into traceable and certified fiber.
