United States New cotton may be threatened again due to continuous rainfall in cotton producing areas

According to the weekly drought early warning report issued by the United States Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, with the continuous impact of record rainfall in the past two weeks becoming obvious, the widespread drought situation in some parts of the south continued to improve for the second week in a row. The North American monsoon also continues to provide much-needed rainfall in the southwest, leading to additional improvements in most parts of the region.

Last week, the drought in Texas, the United States, eased significantly. Both the short-term and long-term prospects show that there will be more rainfall in Texas, the delta and the southeast. According to the weather forecast, there will be moderate to heavy rain in Texas, Delta and Southeast China in the next 1-5 days, and the rainfall probability in most cotton producing areas in the United States in the next 6-10 days and 8-14 days will be higher than normal. At present, the new cotton boll opening in the United States is gradually entering a climax, which is expected to be close to 40% by early September. At this time, excessive rainfall will affect the cotton yield and quality.
