Egypt has resumed cotton exports to India and Pakistan after a two-month hiatus as a precautionary measure amid the pandemic, Chairman of the Egyptian Cotton Exporters Association Nabil El Santaricy said, according to Al Mal. This comes as Egypt’s total cultivation area for the commodity will drop 22% this season to 183k acres, Masrawy reports, citing an unnamed source from the Cotton Arbitration and Testing General Organization.
