With a view to enhance cotton yield in India to 1,000 kilograms (kgs) per hectare from current level of 450 kgs per hectare, which is almost about 50 per cent less than global average of 800 kgs per hectare, ASSOCHAM has suggested the government to provide improved irrigation facilities and develop seeds suitable for high-density planting to increase cotton productivity to boost farmers’ income and cater to growing requirements of textile industry. Besides, ASSOCHAM has also suggested that government should restrict its intervention to MSP related operations in the cotton sector as restrictions on export-import of cotton would only disrupt markets.
