Cotton Output Below Plan in TurkmenistanWASHINGTON - Dec 10/05 - SNS -- Cotton lint production in Turkmenistan ended up unchanged from last year at 210,000 bales while cotton seed output ended up around 750,000 metric tons (MT)< according to a recent report by the U.S. agricultural attache for the country. Weather conditions were favorable throughout the region, particularly during the harvest season. This allowed for harvesting to continue late into the fall. "The production target for cotton was again set at 2 million MT, which proved, as in previous years, unattainable," the U.S. agricultural attache said. "Press reports in the fall were highly critical of sector managers." Cotton is grown in 50 districts out of 60 agricultural districts. State orders for cotton remain extremely high. Area devoted to plantings was under 750,000 hectares. Subscribers can read the full text of the article by Clicking here
