Cotton sowing began this Monday (01/11), in the Southwest region of the state, in Bahia and the rains that fall in most of the producing municipalities that make up it favor work. For the 2021/2022 harvest, the forecast from the Bahian Association of Cotton Producers (Abapa) estimates that the planting intention is around 9% more than the consolidated figure in 2020/2021, of 266,662 hectares. This decision is directly linked to the consumer market and is influenced by the input sector.
