Earlier Report Observations
In 2018, cotton seeds production in Honduras reached 2 040 t, supported by active efforts to revive cotton cultivation. The Secretariat of Agriculture and Livestock (SAG) and the Salvadoran Cotton Corporation (Copal) provided technical support, in-kind credits for inputs and pest control, and an agreement with El Salvador facilitated seed supply and technical assistance for cotton farming in El Paraíso and Olancho departments.
Following the initial revival, production eased to 1 985 t in 2019 and 1 965 t in 2020, marking a period of stabilization. A rebound to 2 116 t occurred in 2021, though specific drivers for this increase are not highlighted in the available sources. The market then contracted to 1 974 t in 2022 before a slight recovery to 1 979 t in 2023, reflecting ongoing volatility.
By 2024, sector reports indicate Honduras led Central America in textile exports, including cotton garments, with $3.9 billion in shipments, potentially boosting demand for cotton raw materials. Concurrently, producers faced high production costs, climatic difficulties, and uncertainty from climate change, affecting the broader agricultural sector.
