Brazilian cotton prices rose in the week ended November 6, despite lower international benchmarks, while trading remained sporadic and low-volume. The São Paulo CIF quote increased 2.48% to about R$4.13 per pound, and Rondonópolis prices also advanced; buyers focused mainly on near-term replenishment while producers controlled sales.
USDA data showed net U.S. upland cotton sales of 277,500 bales for 2026/27, with Vietnam the largest buyer at 200,500 bales.
Producer restraint and limited spot availability supported Brazilian prices even as New York weakened. U.S. export sales, particularly to Vietnam, point to demand support for cotton, though the article reports no direct feed-commodity impact.
