Cotton Policy in China

by Stephen MacDonald, Fred Gale, and James Hansen

Cotton Policy in China examines China's attempt to maintain a high level of price support for its cotton producers, analyzing the policy's motivation, its consequences to date, and the impacts of various adjustment alternatives China might pursue. China's large role in world cotton markets and the unprecedented size of the Government's cotton stocks suggest difficult choices ahead.
